Our process for approval and renewal information will inform you how to invite an Honorary scholar to the University.
What is an honorary appointment?
An honorary appointment is a voluntary arrangement which allows esteemed individuals from other institutions and businesses to cooperate with academic staff at the University of Exeter. It allows them access to certain University of Exeter facilities to further their own research or to cooperate on joint research to the mutual benefit of both themselves and the University of Exeter.
An honorary appointment is not a contract of employment and honorary appointments will not receive any remuneration for work they undertake in their honorary capacity.
The University reserves the right to terminate an honorary appointment at any time and for any reason prior to its expiry.
If, in the future, the honorary appointment is appointed to a substantive role within the University, their honorary appointment will cease.
