Events in Physics
The Royal Astronomical Society and the Office of Astronomy for Development invite applications for their visiting experts programme. This enables professionals to establish research, educational and development related collaborations between the UK and countries where astronomy is not well established. The visit is expected to have an impact on one of the following areas of development:
鈥chool level education;
鈥ublic understanding of science;
鈥niversity level education and research.
Scientists, engineers and educators based in the UK, or who will travel to the UK, may apply. Visits must last for a minimum of one week, and longer visits are encouraged.
Grants are worth up to 拢1,000 each and may cover travel costs to and from the host institutions.
