The Faculty of Social Sciences, is expanding its international academic activity significantly, and to become a focal point for international research activity. To do that we established the TAU International Graduate School for Social Sciences (IGS3). This new school will include all the Faculty’s International M.A. programs to attract excellent research students from all over the world and host, every year, 25 internationally renowned scholars as affiliated and visiting professors.
The creation of the IGS3 will enable academic collaboration and enhance the synergy between the faculty’s various international programs. The school will put an emphasis on inter-disciplinary thinking and innovation in teaching and research, focusing on creating the next generation of bright young researchers, experts and policy makers, to be taught and guided by the best researchers of the world’s top universities.
