Visiting Fellowships

Ten selected visiting teaching fellows will spend up to one month each at Irvine, LSE, and Osaka in order to gain first hand information and experience of course design, teaching and examining for this new field in history and social science.


All participants in the network will also, through formal and informal discussions,  become informed about the scale, scope, methods and epistemological assumptions of courses for teaching and approaches to research in global economic history across a range of cultures and universities in Europe, North American, India and East Asia.
