The objective of the call is to invite external researchers, lecturers and artists of a very high level for a relatively long duration (6 to 24 months). The successful chairs are expected to strengthen the research and creativity potential of our site and to significantly increase the reputation and visibility of Université Côte d'Azur, especially through the establishment of ambitious international collaborations.
