Visiting Students

The Visiting Student Research Program (VSRP) is an opportunity for highly qualified students in their baccalaureate or post-baccalaureate studies to be engaged in research with faculty mentors in selected areas of research. The program typically lasts between three to six months, depending on the research project.

VSRP interns may participate in the program through one of the University’s three academic divisions: Biological and Environmental Science and Engineering; Computer, Electrical and Mathematical Science and Engineering; or Physical Science and Engineering.

Currently enrolled KAUST students, KAUST alumni and students currently in a Ph.D. program, or those who have earned a Ph.D. are not eligible to participate. VSRP students who become regular admitted KAUST students are not eligible for transfer credit.

For more information about VSRP, please see Visiting Student Policy or contact vsrp@kaust.edu.sa.
