Institute for Advanced Study Visiting Member
Social Sciences

Deadline:  No current information is available, contact the School of Social Sciences to confirm program availability 

The School of Social Sciences each year invites as members some fifteen to eighteen visiting scholars who constitute a genuinely interdisciplinary and international group.   Visiting members are expected to pursue only their own research, but the school organizes a weekly seminar at which members as well as invited guests present their on-going work.  Although the school is not wedded to any particular approach, it encourages social science with a historical and humanistic bent and entertains applications in history, philosophy, literary criticism, literature, and language, as well as the traditional fields of social science.

Specific questions are posted yearly to guide the visiting scholars' work.
