The Institute for Gender, Sexuality, and Feminist Studies (IGSF) at McGill University invites applications for the position of Muriel Gold Visiting Professor. This nil-salary position is open to applicants wishing to spend one or two academic terms (Fall 2025 and/or Winter 2026) in residence at McGill to carry out research on gender, sexuality, or feminist studies. The Institute is located in a stimulating, bilingual, urban environment in Montreal. It offers workspace and support, an ongoing seminar program, and contact with faculty members at McGill and neighboring universities.

To be eligible, applicants must hold a faculty position in another academic institution. The position is ideal for those with research leave funding, a portable research fellowship, or sabbatical.

While we may provide administrative advice on the following matters, we ask that IGSF visiting professors assume full responsibility for visa applications, health insurance, housing, and living expenses. Please note that Canada does not pay for hospital or medical services for visitors. We ask all visiting professors to secure health insurance for the duration of their stay in Canada.
