The goal of the Tinker Visiting Professor program is to bring to the campus pre-eminent scholars and professionals (journalists, writers, artists, public officials, etc.) who are citizens of Latin America or the Iberian Peninsula as a means of encouraging contact and collaboration. \u00a0Please note that citizens of Canada may apply as long as they are considered Latin Americanists.<\/p>\n<p>A Tinker Visiting Professor usually offers to teach (or co-teach) two courses &#8211; a mixed graduate\/undergraduate class and a specialized seminar in his\/her field of expertise. The visitor is asked also to give a public lecture. The Tinker Professor will be supported by a stipend, office space at the Institute of Latin American Studies, assistance in arranging Columbia housing, travel reimbursements, and part-time research assistance. Funding can also be made available to support conferences or other events at the University related to the visitor\ufffds fields of interest during or following their semester of residence.<\/p>\n<p>The Institute of Latin American Studies (ILAS) administers the Tinker Professor Program on behalf of Columbia University.
