Senior Associates

Being an Associate has been a great opportunity for me. It has improved my teaching and research outputs. I have been able to network with many scientists in my research area within my country and across the globe.

The Senior Associates programme is designed for scientists - between the ages of 46 and 65 at the time of application - whose main affiliation is in a developing country.

It enables them to maintain long term formal contacts with the stimulating and active scientific environment of the Centre by supporting their visits to ICTP where they are exposed to the most modern aspects of their scientific fields.

Associates are expected to play a major role in building their scientific communities, enhancing physics and mathematics education at all levels, and planning research projects related to the specific needs of their home regions.

In addition to the research fields listed below, ICTP  Associates can also pursue research in the field of Digital and Computer Networking.
