The MESPOM Consortium is hosting outstanding third-country scholars who are interested in contributing to the study programme and strengthening academic partnerships with the Consortium. Selected academics are hosted for a period of up to three months in one of the Consortium’s institutions. During this period they teach or develop elements of the MESPOM course, supervise thesis projects of MESPOM students and/or engage in independent research or other activities aimed to enhance the quality of MESPOM.
