Visiting professors and fellows
The School of Law finances a Visiting Program addressed to scholars in Law or in cognate fields from foreign universities or research centers, as well as for individuals engaged in post-doctoral studies from around the world.
In order to take part in the intellectual and social life of the School of Law, visitors should get in contact with a professor of the School of Law (i.e. contact person).
The program provides visitors access to the University facilities (including libraries) and to an individual workstation placed in the School of Law to carry out research activities.
At the end of the stay, visitors will receive an attendance certificate and the “Visiting Professor” or “Visiting Fellow” title. The “Visiting Professor” title is exclusively awarded to full or associate foreign professors. The “Visiting Fellow” title is awarded to foreign assistant professors and post-doc fellows.
Minimum stay for all categories of visitors has to be no less than 30 continuous days. Visitors are expected to work on their research project.
During their stay, Visiting Scholars are asked to carry out research activity and/or to teach courses or seminars.

FAQ 1
What happens in case the Visitor does not stay for 30 continuous days?
Failure to respect the 30 days’ threshold would result in the denial of the allowance for the expenses (if applicable) and the impossibility to being awarded the academic title of “Visiting Professor” or “Visiting Researcher”.
FAQ 2
Is there a maximum amount that can be reimbursed?
For applicants who have applied for financial support, the amount of the allowance will be determined during the evaluation process of the academic project of the Incoming Visitor and should not exceed 2000 Euros for applicants from a European State and must not exceed 2500 Euros for applicants from non-European countries.
FAQ 3
Once the reimbursement has been granted by the Law School, what are the administrative conditions for obtaining the reimbursement?
According to the current applicable regulation of the University of Milano-Bicocca (Regolamento Missioni), the allowance for reimbursement for expenses will follow these rules:
1) Incoming Visitors will have to anticipate all the travel and accomodation expenses and to keep all the original documents (for example, fiscal bills, tickets, boarding passes, etc.) proving the expense and cost sustained during their stay in Milan.
2) As for travel expenses, Visitors should consider that only travels to and from Milan are reimbursed.
For any other administrative conditions, please read the “Regolamento Missioni”.
