Conferences & Lecture Series

IAU hosts lecture series, symposiums, and conferences each term with speakers from the IAU Faculty, Resident Fellows, Visiting Scholars, local community leaders, as well as experts in fields relevant to the current events of the region. IAU strives to remain active and engaged with the academic and cultural community of the region, and one way to achieve this is by maintaining an open and up-to-date dialogue for the student population through events such as those listed below. Information and programs for these events can be found here on the IAU website. All IAU students, faculty, and staff are encouraged to attend and participate in IAU events, and many of these events are also open to the public as well as students from other local universities.
