The Centre for Chinese Studies Visiting Scholar Program brings a number of international scholars to the Centre every year. Scholars have the opportunity to spend up to one year conducting their own research in South Africa, whilst working side by side with established Fellows and contributing to the ideas and intellectual debate surrounding China's engagement with Africa. Generally, our Visiting Scholars are Masters or PhD students whose research falls within the Centre's active programs.
The Program is provided in collaboration with the University of Stellenbosch, which provides access to the University library and its facilities. The Centre for Chinese Studies provides a desk, chair, computer access as well as individualized research assistance and support from Fellows.
In order to apply, please email a current resume, a brief statement of your research project including duration of stay, to Professor Scarlett Cornelissen at sc3@sun.ac.za.
