Welcome to the Institute for Advanced Study
The Institute for Advanced Study (IAS) is IU Bloomington’s locus of intellectual vitality and community on campus. IAS creates opportunities for artists, engineers, game designers, business analysts, poets, physicists, and so many others to convene around common questions. Every discipline illuminates something others cannot fully see, and people from all over campus come to IAS to find new ways of knowing and understanding. IAS invests in the people and ideas that make our university extraordinary.
