About Us
As the world’s second, and Ireland’s only, Institute for Advanced Studies, DIAS is a globally embedded institution that attracts scholars and academics from around the world. It conducts and publishes advanced research across three disciplines: Celtic Studies, Theoretical Physics and Cosmic Physics. DIAS also leads Ireland’s participation in a number of international research endeavours that focus on big unanswered questions for mankind. Read more in our
2018-2022 Strategy – Embedded globally, strength locally.
The Annual Report for 2019 is now available: DIAS Annual Report 2019.
The Registrar & CEO is Dr. Eucharia Meehan MRIA.
