The National Center for Family & Marriage Research (NCFMR) invites applications from faculty and researchers for our Visiting Scholars program. The NCFMR is able to offer office space, computing support, and opportunities to participate in NCFMR seminars and activities on the BGSU campus for up to two scholars. Unfortunately, the NCFMR does not have funds available to support salary, travel, or research expenses for visiting scholars. Scholars are invited to visit for a variety of lengths of time, ranging from an academic year, semester, summer, or one month.

Visiting Scholars from a range of social science disciplines (e.g., demography, economics, history, human development, psychology, and sociology) are encouraged to apply. The NCFMR is especially interested in hosting scholars conducting work in one or more of its research themes.
