Hiring International Faculty


Any faculty position at UGA is eligible for visa sponsorship. Since faculty positions assume permanence, especially those that are tenure track, sponsorship for permanent residence may also be considered. If a hiring unit brings a candidate to campus for an interview it is advisable to arrange an appointment for the candidate and a staff member from the hiring unit with the appropriate ISSIS staff member. ISSIS will assist the candidate and department with both visa sponsorship and permanent residency.

H visas are used to initially hire faculty with a gradual move to permanent residency.
