Other Arrangements
Scholars and researchers anticipating a sabbatical or wishing
to conduct research in the United States often learn of opportunities
by speaking or corresponding with colleagues in the same field
or by attending professional meetings. Professors may also
learn of colleagues with similar research interests from former
students who are in the United States, from U.S. university
faculty or administrators who are visiting the country, through
e-mail discussion lists in their academic area, or from papers
in scholarly journals. Sometimes scholars and researchers
negotiate directly with a department or research center. The
probability of arranging a research sabbatical in the United
States is higher in business, scientific, and technological
fields than in the humanities, social sciences, and the arts.
