This page is currently under construction and we need your input! The aim of this page is to provide details about visitor programs in geomagnetism and paleomagnetism. If you have such a program, please send details to Nicola Richmond and it will be added to this page.
- Beijing Visiting fellowship available from the Paleomagnetism and Geochronology Laboratory.
- Lancaster University has visiting researchers at the Centre for Environmental Magnetism and Paleomagnetism (CEMP).
- University of Minnesota Visiting Fellowships at the Institute for Rock Magnetism. Applications are invited twice a year for visiting fellowships (regular and student) lasting for up to 10 days. Topics for research are open to any field of study involving fine particle magnetism, but preference is given to projects relating magnetism to geological or environmental studies, or to fundamental physical studies relevant to the magnetism of Earth materials. A limited number of travel grants of up to $750 are available to cover actual travel costs. No funds are available for per diem expenses. Application forms and information necessary for proposal preparation may be obtained online. Proposal deadlines are October 30 for visits during the following January 1 to June 30 interval, and April 30 for stays during the following July 1 to December 31. Proposals are evaluated by the IRM Review and Advisory Committee, and seven or eight Fellowships are typically awarded for each six-month interval. Shorter, less formal visits from other researchers are readily arranged through the laboratory manager. There are no fees for use of IRM facilities.
