New Cooperation Partner WIAS

The Zukunftskolleg extended its network of international cooperation partners by a partnership with the Waseda Institute for Advanced Study (WIAS) based in Tokyo.

WIAS  was founded in 2006 by Waseda University, one of the top universities of Japan, with the aim to provide an independent research environment for next-generation researchers. About 40 researchers are currently working in the fields of natural sciences, humanities, social sciences as well as interdisciplinary areas at WIAS. Oversea-distinguished researchers have the opportunity to stay at Waseda for a short-term to engage in cooperative research with WIAS researchers or Waseda faculty members.

The cooperation with WIAS enriches the Zukunftskolleg's international cooperation partners.
