Collectively, the ten Institutes of the School of Advanced Study at the University of London organise one of the largest programmes of academic events in the humanities and social sciences in the UK. Each year around 1,400 separate events - including seminars, lectures, conferences and workshops - attract over 30,000 audience members drawn from around the UK and internationally as well as the London area. The majority of these events are open to the public and free to attend.
The School also manages major collaborative events on a regular basis, working with private, public and charitable organisations, from the local Bloomsbury Festival, to the Screen Studies Group, one of the worlds largest networks of screen media scholars.
