About the Institute of Advanced Studies
At the centre of a supportive, and inclusive research environment, the IAS brings researchers together to develop skills and networks, debate and discover new avenues of research and collaboration.
Supporting the strategic ambitions of the University of Birmingham, the IAS aims to:
- Build impact through incubation of our interdisciplinary capabilities by reducing barriers to internal and international collaboration.
- Create an environment for individuals and teams to flourish and be productive in their research by supporting our researchers to deliver more, higher quality interdisciplinary research outcomes.
