Affiliates and Visiting Scholars

 

The IGCCC’s affiliates — a combination of individuals and research centres and networks — are based at the University of St Andrews and elsewhere.

The IGCCC acted as host to many externally-funded visiting scholars over the years, including those in receipt of funding from the EU, the China Scholarship Council, the Polish Academy of Sciences, Tubitac, and more. Below is a partial listing of our visiting scholars.

Building on work focused on global cinema, the Institute’s initiatives seek to provide a suitable forum and space for collaborations for work related to global cinema and creative cultures.

We also seek corporate and institutional sponsorships from across Europe and Asia, and aim to set up partnerships with prestigious international partners — academic institutions, cultural organisations, and film festivals.
