Visiting Professors and Academics Program

The Wind Energy Institute of Canada (WEICan) has established the Visiting Professors and Academics Program (VPAP) in order to enhance and recognize the contribution of scholars in the field of wind energy. VPAP participants enhance their scholarship through intellectual interactions with other visiting academics, connections to the wider Canadian and global wind energy network, discourse with WEICan Board, management and staff, access to state of the art small and large wind test facilities as well as modern, fully furnished, accommodation on the WEICan site. Their presence gives them the opportunity to make a significant difference to the development of wind energy in Canada and to further enhance their own careers in wind energy.

While most visiting professors and academics will be from colleges and universities, appointments of individuals from public and private organizations outside of academia will also be considered.

All applications under this program will be considered whether they are for one week or for more than one year.
