Visiting Researchers

Distinguished Research Affiliates

In an initiative launched in 2015, the Kellogg Institute has invited select scholars from other institutions to enter into a long-term collaboration with the Kellogg research community as Distinguished Research Affiliates.

Distinguished Research Collaboration

Recognized for their scholarship in their respective fields, the Distinguished Research Affiliates advance the Institute’s major research themes of democracy and human development through ongoing collaborative relationships with Kellogg faculty fellows and doctoral students.

Distinguished Research Affiliates engage with the Kellogg scholarly community by:

  • Advising the Institute and helping to nurture new initiatives in their areas of expertise
  • Developing research projects with faculty fellows and doctoral students
  • Mentoring doctoral students
  • Contributing to Institute academic events
  • Helping disseminate Kellogg research to scholarly and policy audiences
