Promoting the free and independent pursuit of scholarly research in the context of an interdisciplinary intellectual community is the main mission of CEU Institute for Advanced Study (CEU-IAS). Located in Budapest, the vibrant cultural and academic hub of Central and Eastern Europe, CEU IAS brings together scholars from all over the world who work in the fields of the social sciences, humanities and the law. High level scholarly work is achieved through a combination of sustained individually undertaken research and ongoing collaborations and conversations with other scholars. CEU IAS is committed to providing its fellows with the time, space and opportunity to do both and to choose their balance and form.CEU IAS is currently accepting applications for its core junior fellowship program for the academic year 2013/14.
