Initiating cross-disciplinary research in the humanities
Established in August 1991, the Research Institute for the Humanities has three main objectives:
- To encourage and coordinate collective, especially inter- disciplinary, research in the humanities at the University;
- To identify areas suited to long-term strategic research; and
- To organize regional and international conferences on the humanities.
Currently, there are nine research centres under the institute, which provides clerical and logistic support, serves as an information clearing house, and organizes events such as small workshops, lectures, and brain-storming sessions for possible research topics.
The institute is primarily supported by private funds and external research grants. Its activities are governed by a management board comprising senior members of the University.
