A person who is pursuing a special programme of research at the University for a limited period of time not normally exceeding an academic year and who is not enrolled for a degree or diploma of the University may be appointed as a Visiting Scholar.

​​​​​​​An example of a visiting scholar is an academic from another University seeking to undertake part or all of their sabbatical at Flinders. It may also be an employee of another institution who does not qualify for academic status but is collaborating on research which requires they have access to University infrastructure. There are other options available for affiliates requiring temporary access for education and training purposes.

Criteria for approving a visit will normally include how the visit will align with the College of Business, Government and Law mission.
