Schemes for Engineers in Research and Development

Distinguished Visiting Fellowship Scheme

Funding

Funding for each approved Distinguished Visiting Fellow will be provided as follows:

  • The cost of one scheduled airline return fare between the airports nearest to the Fellow’s home and the host institution.

  • The cost of accommodation (including meals) at or near the host institution.

  • A daily allowance to cover all incidental expenses, including UK travel.

The allowable budget for each Fellow will not normally exceed £6000. An accompanying spouse will be permitted, if so desired, but at no additional cost to the scheme.

The host institution is required to provide a list of anticipated costs, with justification, at application stage. Payment of 75% of the approved costs will be made to the host institution at the same time that approval is notified. The remaining 25% will be paid on invoice to the host institution after the visit, subject to a satisfactory End-of-visit report from the host and the Visiting fellow and a written statement of expenditure.
