Programs

CASBS helps make the behavioral sciences relevant by solving problems. CASBS is organized around a variety of programs that work together to create a stimulating environment for fellows while supporting their work on specific problems.

There are four main programs and these are their goals:

  1. Working Groups – a variety of short-term and long-term group projects are supported at the Center. These can range from 1 week to 5 years in duration and members of groups may be in residence full-time or partially during the project life-span at the Center.  These projects are focused around specific topics and seek to apply behavioral science findings to real-life problems.
  2. Individual Residential Fellowship Program – encourages basic research in the behavioral sciences through a year-long, on-site program.
  3. Programs for the Public – these workshops, lectures and events seek to inform the public about research and findings in the behavioral sciences. The public may participate through registration as individual affiliates or corporate partners of the Center.
  4. Post-Doctoral Fellowship – Complementing the programs above is a program to encourage the work of young scholars who will work on the range of projects hosted by the Center while developing their own research interests.

We have tried to provide sufficient information about each program to give the visitor a comprehensive understanding of what sorts of programs we are running at the Center.  We encourage you to look through the different types of residential and non-residential offerings and evaluate how your work might fit into the Center’s goals.
