City University in London is offering scholarships to visiting academic faculty interested in teaching financial and/or business journalism in the context of globalization. The scholarships are for three months (mid September 2008Â to mid December 2008) and are worth $19,000.
Professors would be required to teach on a master’s in global business reporting (details at: www.mundusjournalism.com).

During the remainder of their time they would be free to pursue their research interests, if appropriate collaborating with City faculty.
The scholarships are available for the 2008-9 academic year.
