As part of its R3AI initiative, IVADO is proud to offer the Visiting Scholar Program, designed to attract outstanding researchers from around the world to collaborate with our research community in Quebec. This program is rooted in IVADO’s vision of developing a new generation of artificial intelligence (AI) — one that is robust, reasoning-based, and responsible — and supporting its adoption across diverse fields

The program invites professors at all career stages — from early-career researchers to seasoned academics — to engage with IVADO’s scientific initiatives and participate actively in our Thematic Semesters, Regroupements, and other research programs

It enhances academic collaboration, enriches educational offerings, and gives IVADO faculty and students access to diverse and renowned expertise across disciplines. Scholars selected through this program will be deeply involved in IVADO’s ongoing research efforts and contribute to our interdisciplinary and collaborative ecosystem.
