Welcome to the International Research Development's (IRD) portfolio of research collaboration funding schemes, which is embedded within the Research Development International team in the Division of Research, Enterprise and Innovation at the University of Bristol.
The Benjamin Meaker Awards for international visits remain at the heart of our portfolio, complemented by new and revised schemes designed to enhance our international research collaborations with eminent professors as well as emerging research leaders.
Visit our Opportunities for International Research Development page to find out more about our schemes and how you can engage.
The Bristol Benjamin Meaker Distinguished Visiting Professorships is a wonderful program that brings new research, ideas and potential collaboration to the University of Bristol. The University is very fortunate to have such a scheme, and the flexible way in which it operates is highly suited for many different visitors.
