THE SIAS SUMMER INSTITUTES
The SIAS Summer Institutes are designed to support the development of scholarly networks and collaborative projects among young scholars from the United States and Europe. Led by distinguished senior scholars, the institutes are open to scholars who have received a Ph.D. within the past five years and Ph.D. candidates who are now studying or teaching at a European or American institution of higher education.
Each institute accommodates twenty participants and is built around two summer workshops, one held in the United States and another in Europe in consecutive years. Participants present their research and collaborate on new projects at the seminars and between the two meetings. The program seeks to explore theoretical, methodological, and empirical issues; promote the integration of approaches and interpretations from various disciplines into the participants' research; review the state of research in an institute's field; and identify promising areas for further research.
In the United States the institutes are administered by the National Humanities Center. In Europe they are administered by the Wissenschaftskolleg zu Berlin.
The SIAS Summer Institutes are sponsored by SIAS (Some Institutes for Advanced Study) consisting of the following institutes:
- Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences, Stanford, CA
- Collegium Budapest, Hungary
- Institute for Advanced Study, Hebrew University Jerusalem, Israel
- Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton, NJ
- National Humanities Center, Research Triangle Park, NC
- Netherlands Institute for Advanced Study, Wassenaar, Netherlands
- Radcliffe Institute at Harvard, MA
- Swedish Collegium for Advanced Study in the Social Sciences, Uppsala, Sweden
- Wissenschaftskolleg zu Berlin, Germany
The SIAS program will announce a new round of institutes in the fall of 2012.
This program is made possible by grants from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation
and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation.
