The first researchers of the new research collegium begin their work
The research collegium posts were advertised internationally, and 622 applications were received.
Established this year, the new research collegium covers all the disciplines represented at Tampere University. Tampere Institute for Advanced Study, Tampere IAS, is the University’s investment in the advancement of scientific knowledge.
“Without highest-quality research we would not be the University we want to be. Discussions with the scholars appointed to the posts have convinced me that we will hear more about all of them in the future,” says Director Juha Teperi from the collegium.
