About the Academic Environment
in the U.S.
The academic environment in the United States is
considerably different than those in many other countries.
Furthermore, the environment can be different for faculty,
students, and within research institutions.
Admissions
In addition to individuals who are beginning graduate
or professional study, many mid-career scholars also
travel to the United States, whether to participate
in postdoctoral research, to lecture, to consult, or
to gain additional training.
Financial Aid
Take every step possible to secure adequate funding
for research. Arrangements for funding visiting researchers
and scholars vary greatly.
