Forskningscentret för Förenta staternas politik och makt har möjliggjort ett utbytesprogram för forskare ända sedan centret grundades. Nedan information om utbytet samt om de gästforskare som besökt Utrikespolitiska institutet.

Längden av vistelsen:

Längden av vistelsen kan variera från tre månader till ett år. 

Lönen:

Lönen förhandlas med direktören för Utrikespolitiska institutet. Finland har ett kontrakt med Förenta staterna om skattebetalning så skatterna betalas antingen till Finland eller USA.

Lönen täcker reseersättning, finansiering av evenemang och publikationer. Forskaren får tillgång till dator och baskontorsmaterial. Utbytet täcker även arbetshälsovården. Forskaren förväntas själv betala sina levnads- och boendekostnader.   

Boende:  

Utrikespolitiska institutet hjälper att hitta en lägenhet i Helsingfors. Största delen har hyrt en lägenhet vid universitets lägenhetshotell. Hyran ligger på ung. 2000-3000 euro i månaden beroende på storleken på lägenheten. Gästhusen ligger i närheten av institutet. Man kan även hyra en lägenhet från den fria marknaden. 

Förväntningar:

Institutet önskar att forskaren skulle producera en artikel till institutets publikationsserie. De olika formaten finns på hemsidan. Ämnet för publikationen definieras enligt ens forskningsintressen. Institutet förväntar sig även att forskaren deltar i seminarier både som talare och deltagare samt att vara nåbar för journalister.
