NCRM International Visitor Exchange Scheme (IVES)

The NCRM International Visitor Exchange Scheme (IVES) provided for incoming and outgoing visiting scholars awards. The incoming visiting scholar awards were for noted overseas experts working at the forefront of key methodological areas to visit a UK centre of methodological excellence in social sciences.

The outgoing visiting scholar awards enabled early and mid-career researchers from the UK in the social sciences to visit a centre of methodological excellence outside the UK.

This scheme ran from 2015-18 and is now closed. The individual projects are listed below.
