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 School is aimed at pre-university students who have an interest in critical thinking and are ready to bridge the gaps between the school curriculum, university study and beyond.
Now in its tenth year, the IAI School returns to HowTheLightGetsIn Hay 2023, where a host of leading academics will inspire the next generation, and admissions tutors will lead in depth Q&As.
"I'm so impressed by the work of the IAI School. Their programme is precisely the sort of thing I wish I'd done at school. While I missed out, students now are set to be stimulated and inspired" - Bruce Daisley, Vice-President EMEA of Twitter
