BRITISH COLUMBIA
YEAR 2000 VISITING SCHOLAR PROGRAM
The Institute of Health Promotion Research at the University of
British Columbia (Vancouver, Canada) is inviting Visiting Scholars
for the 2000 and 2001 academic years. The Visiting Scholar Program
is an integral part of the Institute of Health Promotion Research.
Scholars working in the areas of health promotion, health education,
population health or disease prevention research are encouraged
to apply. Scholars may apply to spend leave or sabbatical time
(one to twelve months) in affiliation with the Institute.
The goal of the Institute is to stimulate health research and
to facilitate interchange of ideas and collaboration among scholars.
Scholars will be expected to take part in Institute activities
such as participation in research seminars, consultation on research
projects, collaboration on development of new research proposals,
and assisting in the supervision of graduate students. Scholars
are also expected to give a public lecture during their term.
The Visiting Scholar program is open to faculty, (untenured or
tenured), from Canadian universities or other countries. Applicants
from UBC will be considered as Scholars-In-Residence. In its selection
of visitors, the Institute hopes to create a diverse community
of junior and senior scholar-researchers. The Institute is interested
in applicants who work in the area of community-based, health
promotion research. This topic will be the focus of events at
the Institute during 1999-2001. Funds are not available for salary.
Scholars will normally be provided with shared office space, phone,
access to the Institute's computer network and library, and limited
clerical assistance. Applications must include:
- a current curriculum vitae,
- a detailed statement of research plans for the time period,
- the length of time for which they are applying,
- and the beginning date.
The applicant must also arrange to have two referees forward a letter of support and appraisal to:
Visiting Scholar Program,
Institute of Health Promotion Research,
3rd Floor, LPC Building, 2206 East Mall,
University of British Columbia,
Vancouver, Canada, V6T 1Z3
Successful applicants may begin their term any time after January 2000.
