Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences

The Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences is a research facility at Stanford University in California where scholars from different fields come to work. The buildings contain offices, meeting spaces, and common areas where researchers advance their projects and connect with colleagues.

The center was founded in 1954 to give scholars a place to research and think deeply. Since then it has played an important role in supporting researchers who investigate fundamental questions in the social sciences.

The center brings together researchers from different social sciences who work side by side and share their perspectives. The community of fellows shapes the place through daily collaboration and mutual support across their research fields.

Visitors should know this is a working space for fellowship recipients and is not open to the general public. The facility provides meals and daily support to its researchers during their stay.

The building was designed by William Wurster and shows the clean lines and open forms of mid-century architecture. The style of the place reflects its philosophy: a setting where thinking and exchange can flow without barriers.
