Visiting Scholars

About the programme

Visiting scholars join us for short stays, typically one to two weeks, with travel and accommodation fully covered by the Central Bank. We expect visiting scholars to engage broadly with our research teams during their visit, providing feedback and guidance to staff. Furthermore, participants will present their own work, attend various seminars and events related to research, and engage with our senior management on our research agenda. This is a unique opportunity to stimulate collaborative work and connections that will outlast the visit. The potential benefits for visiting scholars include the building of relationships with Central Bank staff, who have access to globally unique granular data sources, as well as access to the frontier questions of interest to global policymakers in the areas of monetary policy, financial stability, and more.

Who should apply?

We aim to attract well-established and experienced researchers, with a proven track record. We welcome applications from a wide range of researchers, but we are particularly interested in building relations with those working on issues aligned with our research agenda.

Duration

The programme will last for one-two weeks, depending on the project.

Funding

We offer remuneration to cover one round-trip, and accommodation expenses.

How to apply?

We hold an open competition once per year. The call for applications is now open, and the closing date is 14 May 2024. For more details on the programme, please contact [email protected].
