Columbia University faculty and researchers are encouraged to apply to the Faculty Visitorship Program at Reid Hall, jointly supported by the Columbia Paris Global Center and the Institute for Ideas and Imagination. Visitors are invited to stay for one to three weeks.
Reid Hall is home to the Columbia Paris Global Center, the Institute for Ideas and Imagination, the Columbia Undergraduate Programs, and Columbia’s Master in History and Literature program. Located in the heart of Montparnasse, Reid Hall partners with French and European institutions to engage with students, faculty, alumni, and the general public across borders and disciplines.
The visitorship provides time and space for conducting research, with opportunities to organize workshops, talks, or conferences if desired. Preference will be given to projects that include collaboration with students, Institute Fellows, Reid Hall’s civic engagement initiatives, or its institutional partners. Additionally, visitors will be expected to contribute to either Reid Hall’s Atelier podcast or the Institute’s Library Chats series.
Funding covers travel and housing for the faculty visitor, as well as administrative support and office space at Reid Hall. We will cover your round-trip flight from New York to Paris, capped at $1,500. Additional support may be available for local travel within France and Europe, as well as for research and programming, depending on the scope and needs of your project.
To apply, candidates should complete the application form and submit a CV and a brief project description.
The deadline for 2026 – 2027 applications is April 30, 2026.
