Having recruited 22 new researchers, the Turku Institute for Advanced Studies (TIAS) strengthens its position as an international unit of high-quality and innovative research in the humanities and social sciences. The three-year research positions of the multidisciplinary research collegium are extremely popular, something which is apparent considering the number of the applications: almost 700 applications from 78 different countries. TIAS is a joint enterprise between the Faculties of Social Sciences, Humanities, Education and Law and Turku School of Economics.
