Visiting Research Fellows

The University of Hong Kong’s Centre for Interdisciplinary Legal Studies (CILS) invites applications for visiting research fellows.  Fellowships last up to 1 academic semester and include at least one week visiting HKU and CILS. During their visit to Hong Kong, fellows will present one public research lecture, as well as one workshop for students and junior researchers. Research lectures can cover any topic related to interdisciplinary legal research. Workshops will focus on methodological issues and professional development.

To apply to become a CILS visiting research fellow, please send a C.V. as well as an approximately 1-2 page statement explaining your interest in interdisciplinary legal studies and proposed topics for a public research lecture and workshop to cils@hku.hk with ‘CILS visiting research fellow’ in the email subject line.
