In a world of information, knowledge is not enough.
Going beyond facts makes the Academy unique. World-leading experts convey original thinking as well as specialist knowledge. Take intriguing, one-of-a-kind courses and push the boundaries of what you know.
The Academy programme offers short, two-part courses by leading thinkers from around the world. Designed to be accessible and opinionated, the courses are your chance to hear scholars from the best universities put forward their views on the problems at the cutting edge of their field.
Now in its fifth year, both live and online, the IAI Academy breaks with the convention that lectures can and should be devoid of opinion. In an era where information is everywhere abundant and available, its goal is not to promote one approach as settled 'objective' knowledge but to encourage lecturers to explicitly provide their own take on a field, and to offer new ways of thinking.
Additional IAI Academy Courses can be found online at IAI.tv.
The IAI Sixth Form hosts interactive talks and workshops for pre-university students with an interest in big ideas and debate. Taking place at the world’s leading festival of ideas, students will have remarkable access to globally renowned speakers and top UK admissions tutors, providing an unparalleled learning experience in their own exclusive venue on-site.
