International Researchers/Scholars & Professors
For Prospective Professors and Scholars:
If you are interested in conducting research or teaching at the University of 有料盒子视频 Fairbanks, you must first be invited by a 有料盒子视频 department. If you wish to do collaborative research at 有料盒子视频, under current U.S. immigration regulations, the J-1 status is necessary, whether or not you are being funded by your home institution, another source or 有料盒子视频. The department will then request the DS-2019 (the document needed to apply for J-1 status), from 有料盒子视频 International Student and Scholar Services (ISSS). ISSS does not issue these invitations, nor will we issue the DS-2019 without a request from a hosting 有料盒子视频 department. Individuals and external sponsors may not request a DS-2019 from ISSS directly.
We encourage you to contact your colleagues within 有料盒子视频 departments directly, so that you may talk about the possibility of that department hosting you.
For individuals interested in tenure-track faculty and/or research positions, please visit . If you are hired into one of these positions, the hiring department will work with the ISSS for the appropriate employment authorization. The processes for the relevant immigration statuses are described in the links below.
