Friends of the Institute
Friends of the Institute for Advanced Study are partners in the advancement of the highest level research and scholarship and, as such, are encouraged to participate in the intellectual and cultural life of IAS. Through generous annual donations and other giving opportunities, Friends participate in an exchange of immense value, providing the Institute with significant unrestricted operating support each year. Such support is vital to the Institute’s ability to remain competitive in attracting the best scholars and scientists from around the world and to ensuring its continued role as a global beacon for theoretical research and intellectual inquiry.
"The Institute for Advanced Study has been the intellectual home of some of the world’s most influential scholars for generations; it is a global hub for collaboration that has led to discoveries of remarkable consequence. But it is neither opaque nor impenetrable – instead it is a remarkably warm and inviting campus, full of interesting and humane people. The Friends of the Institute can actively participate in films, lectures, dining, and discussions, and in doing so can tap into the same energy and enthusiasm that drives the scholars. IAS is one of the world’s great institutions, and we have the remarkable good fortune to be part of it."
