Description
The Mershon Center Residency Grant enables Ohio State faculty to bring a scholar or practitioner to the university for an extended residency focused on international security studies. The program is designed to foster intellectual exchange, mentorship, and collaborative programming, with the resident engaging with Mershon affiliates, faculty, students, and the broader community. Residencies typically include talks, workshops, or seminars, but the primary emphasis is on meaningful interaction and advancing research in security studies. The length of stay is flexible, ranging from a few days to up to a year, and the grant prioritizes proposals that offer mutual benefit to both the resident and the Mershon community.
