These workshops and conferences serve to forge ties between NYUAD faculty, NYU’s global network, and regional and international scholars in areas of the Sciences, Social Sciences, Arts and Humanities. A broader audience interested in these activities is often invited to participate as attendants or discussants.
Through its workshop and conference program, the Institute fosters the exchange of new research ideas and collaborations among scholars and their respective institutions. The program offers opportunities for scholars and researchers of all disciplines to gather with their colleagues and exchange the newest ideas in research and broader academic developments. Proposals for these gatherings go through a rigid peer review process and are vetted by a steering committee headed by NYUAD’s Provost.
