Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences, Research center at Stanford University, California, US
The Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences spans 19,600 square feet, containing 54 study spaces, meeting rooms, and a conference hall.
The Ford Foundation established the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences in 1954, with Ralph W. Tyler appointed as its first director.
