<div class=""><p>The Leverhulme Trust was established by
the Will of William Hesketh Lever, the founder of Lever Brothers. Since
1925 it have provided grants and scholarships for research and
education; today, it is one of the largest all-subject providers of
research funding in the UK, distributing approximately £80m a year. It
awards funding across academic disciplines, supporting talented
individuals in the arts, humanities, sciences and social sciences to
realise their personal vision in research and professional training.</p>
<p>The <a href="https://www.leverhulme.ac.uk/sites/default/files/Help_notes/VP-guidance-for%20applicants-2016.pdf" target="_blank">Visiting Professorships</a>
are awarded to UK institutions that wish to invite an eminent
researcher from overseas to enhance the knowledge and skills of academic
staff or the student body within the host institution. The objective of
the awards is to enable distinguished academics based overseas to spend
a time at a UK university, primarily in order to enhance the skills of
academic staff or the student body within the host institution. It is
recognised that Visiting Professors may also wish to use the opportunity
to further their own academic interests.</p>

<a name="valorfinanciado" class=""><h3><b>Benefícios</b></h3></a>
<div class=""><p>Depending on the individual
circumstances of candidates, the Trust will award a maintenance grant up
to a level commensurate with the salary of a professor in the
comparable field in the UK. However, account must be taken of existing
income from the proposed visitor’s own university, whether they will be
on paid or unpaid leave during their visit. The maintenance grant is
only payable for the period of the visit to the UK.</p>
<p>Travel costs to and from the UK will be met, based on the lowest
reasonable tariff for economy travel. If two or more visits are made the
Trust will pay for a maximum of two return fares for the Visiting
Professor and partner.</p>
<p>Requests for associated costs, if justified by the programme, will
also be considered. These may include travel within the UK (for the
visitor only), laboratory consumables, technical assistance, etc.</p>
