USP-CEU TEACHING AND RESEARCHING  PERSONNEL

Researching mobility must last for at least a month and it must have a maximum duration of 6 months. It aims to update knowledge, learn new teaching and researching techniques and methods; as well as the establishment of new academics bonds, or the strengthening of the already existing ones, between Professors and Researchers and Institutions. 

EXTERNAL ACADEMIC STAFF EXTERNAL AT CEU UNIVERSITIES 

To promote scientific and academic collaboration with prestigious researchers from Spain and across the world, and to strengthening our priority research areas, the Universidad CEU San Pablo has established a procedure for lecturers and researchers from other institutions to undertake a research visit at the University. 

This is aimed at lecturers, researchers and experts from universities, research institutions, international organizations and other bodies that carry out work in fields related to the research areas at CEU USP.  

Visiting researchers must carry out the activities for which they request or accept a research visit to the University and to respect the official start and end dates of the visit. Furthermore, during their visit, they must agree to observe the University's regulations as they apply to them. The fact of undertaking a research visit to the University does not constitute an employment relationship of any kind with the University. 

Visiting researchers are responsible for covering their personal expenses, including travel, accommodation, meals, and medical and accident insurance, and for obtaining a visa, if required, to carry out the visit to the University.  

To apply for a visit to the University

Researchers from external institutions interested in carrying out a research visit to the Universidad CEU San Pablo should contact the CEU researcher who will host them to request an invitation letter. This person will then process this request by filling in the form to request an official invitation letter (solicitud de carta de invitación). This form is available on the University intranet. 

Art. 9 of the 2/2019 Regulation on the Recognition of University Research Groups, states that ‘whenever a significative change in the group’s trajectory happens, the researcher in charge will be able to ask the Research Committee for the review of its status in the Record without having to wait for the next evaluation call. Exceptional publications or projects concession by open call will be considered ‘significative change’, as well as any other change that duly reasoned is evaluated by the University Research Committee.

It will be necessary then to re-evaluate on the basis of data from the last 3 years. For this reason, the evaluation sheet (a different model for every School) must be filled in and submitted to [email protected], as well as the reasoned application signed by the PI of the GIR requesting the change of category.
