The "Hosting a CEU Lecturer" Program enables institutions of Higher Education in the region to receive CEU professors for short lecturing visits. In the past years our professors have delivered guest lectures at universities form Georgia to Slovenia. This year, we would like to promote invitations from Central Asia too. The purpose of this programme is to create or strengthen ties between CEU and the host institution; to respond to specific regional needs in terms of academic expertise; and to allow both academics and students to experience CEU's approach to teaching. We also hope that such short intensive visits will form the beginnings of further collaboration - from joint research projects to curriculum development.
Any university in Central and Eastern Europe and the Former Soviet Union may request from us such a visit, as long as the request is for a discipline area that we teach (see introductory list of disciplines above). This is an opportunity to all those interested in establishing stronger contacts with the CEU or to those who may need short term expertise in a particular subject area.
All Academic Departments and programmes at CEU are actively involved in Mobility Grants and can send their faculty for short lecturing trips into the region. Therefore, we may accept requests or applications in the following discipline areas:
Sociology
Political Science
Environmental Science and Policy
International Relations and European Studies
Medieval Studies
History (Modern and Early Modern)
Gender and Culture
Legal Studies (Business, Constitutional and Human Rights Law)
Nationalism
Economics
Central European University pays all travel costs and provides money for accommodation, if
needed.

You should include the topics or general area in which you are interested, and describe in
what way such a visit will be of benefit to your department or institution. We will then
contact the relevant department at CEU and carry out all necessary arrangements for the
visit. Please note: due to our professors' time constraints, we cannot guarantee that all
requests can be granted. Therefore, all requests will be subject to the availability of a
professor and to a committee process which will judge applications based on your letter of
interest.
