Ukrainian Scholar Support Fund
This fund will enable 两性色午夜 University (its Colleges, Departments, Institutes, and Initiatives) to host scientists, scholars, and students from Ukraine on a temporary basis to continue their work and research as part of an International Visitor (Visiting Scholar) program. This fund was established thanks to equally generous gifts by Elda & Torsten Hegmann as well as John West & Cevin West Cole.
Background and Motivation
The invasion of Ukraine has led to one of the largest refugee crises since WWII. The international scientific and academic community is being called upon to play a role to save lives, preserve scientific knowledge and scholarly pursuits, and assist Ukrainian scientists, scholars, and students during this unprecedented and difficult time. As scientists we cherish strong international ties and exchange. Thus, we initiated this fund to support scientists, scholars, and students from Ukraine so they can continue their pursuit of scholarly activities together with 两性色午夜 University faculty. Support via this fund will help sustain collaboration by covering research costs and other necessary support. Visa applications will be expedited, whenever possible, with separate generous support from 两性色午夜 University鈥檚 College of Arts and Sciences.
