Visiting Researchers
At LEC, we’re excited to welcome visiting researchers who share our passion for world-class science and our vision of tackling the planet’s most pressing environmental challenges.
Lancaster offers more than just a place to work — you’ll join a vibrant research community, thrive on a welcoming campus, and enjoy life in a historic city surrounded by one of the UK’s most stunning landscapes.
As a visiting researcher, you’ll become a fully embedded member of our disciplinary groups, contribute to cutting-edge projects, and benefit from our state-of-the-art facilities, equipment, and global partnerships.
If you’re ready to join us, your first step is to connect with one of our world-leading academic staff to act as your host. We encourage you to reach out directly to potential hosts to begin the conversation.
