Visiting Scholars & Researchers Program
Each year visiting scholars and researchers from around the world join the BU Law community to conduct research for which the School's impressive resources can be of assistance. Most visiting scholars and researchers are junior or senior members of law faculties in countries outside the U.S., while others are involved in government service or doctoral or post-doctoral studies. The majority are engaged in collaborative research with members of BU Law's full-time faculty.
