Student and Faculty Visitors to Public Policy at the UCLA Luskin School of Public Affairs
Los Angeles and UCLA are enormously rich intellectual environments, and the Department of Public Policy encourages faculty and students from other universities to visit UCLA. In encouraging visitors to our program we seek to foster a diverse intellectual environment of interaction among students and scholars of cities and planning from a wide variety of disciplinary and geographic backgrounds. UCLA operates on the academic quarter system ( http://www.registrar.ucla.edu/calendar/ [2]) visitors may be in residence in the Department of Public Policy for a minimum of one, but no more than four quarters. Most teaching and student activity occurs during the fall, winter, and spring quarters; the summers are quieter and devoted mostly to research.
There are four types of visitors to the Department of Public Policy; Visiting Scholars [3], Visiting Affiliates [4], Non Degree Objective (NDO) Students [5], and Postdoctoral Scholars [6].
