The Visiting Professor Programme was launched in 2006 to promote the international projection of the whole Sardinian University system.
For this purpose every year the University of Sassari publishes one or more international calls and selects an average number of 130 highly qualified scholars from all over the world.
Applications may be filed by both full and assistant professors or researchers, currently employed at a foreign University and interested in cooperating with the University of Sassari giving their scientific contribution in their specific teaching and/or research fields of expertise.
On the basis of the profiles requested by the Departments of the University of Sassari, candidates may apply for either short-term (6 to 18 days) or for long-term visits (1 to 6 months).
The Programme is funded by the Regional Government of Sardinia (Regione Autonoma della Sardegna - RAS), that allocates funds to the Universities of Cagliari and Sassari, on the basis of a three-year covenant (Resolution No. 56/21 of 29/12/2009).
