The Centre for Advanced Study Sofia (CAS)

 In partnership with other Institutes for Advanced Study, universities, scholarly and cultural associations, it works to re-establish the tradition of intellectual communities and to facilitate open critical debate and exchange of people and ideas on national and trans-national levels. With its transparent, lean and flexible management, CAS has been, since its inception in 2000, a reliable partner for donors and scholars alike.

CAS pursues its mission via two modalities: independent fellowships granted to brilliant researchers and collaborative projects bringing together scholars from various fields and regions to explore important topics. Building upon its accumulated experience in intra-regional and cross-regional comparative research, CAS is now expanding towards other areas in and beyond Europe.
