Hello! This website contains information and links relevant to visiting J-1 scholars. Most of the content here is drawn from the website of the UC Davis Department of Services for International Students and Scholars (SISS).

To participate in a visiting scholar program with Viticulture and Enology, Food Science and Technology, or Biological and Agricultural Engineering, please contact your prospective hosting faculty member. If invited to Davis, your host will contact our office to begin the work authorization process.
