Visiting Scholar at TILT: A visiting scholar is a scholar established in his or her field, who visits TILT from an outside institution or organization. Visiting scholars have excellent knowledge in the field of law, technology and society. The appointment is aimed at advancing a collaborative research activity. The position is available to those whose research, creative activities, or professional achievements make an extended stay at TILT appropriate to engage with and collaborate with our scholars. The main task of the visiting scholar is to conduct research; however, it would be highly appreciated if he/she is also willing to give occasional guest lectures, research seminars or master classes. Visiting scholars will also be invited to talks, workshops and conferences hosted by TILT.
