Programs

CASBS is an accelerator of ideas. In addition to our flagship fellowship program, we facilitate interdisciplinary, intersectoral, and collaborative efforts to develop new solutions to major societal challenges. We do this by convening great thinkers, tapping into the CASBS network of current and former fellows, and developing better practices and tools for social inquiry.

Since 1954, the CASBS fellowship has been bringing some of the world's leading scholars on society, behavior, and institutions to pursue pathbreaking, curiosity-driven research at our hilltop campus.  More recently, our efforts to design and implement initiatives delivering knowledge for a world in crisis have drawn on the CASBS network of former fellows, faculty affiliates, and leading thinkers and policymakers beyond academia to deliver new ideas and research programs addressing major problems facing the world.  We have also provided support for social science and social inquiry through a focus on cutting-edge methods, awards for extraordinary scholarship, and field building workshops and institutes.
