It supports work in the traditional humanities disciplines such as languages and literatures, philosophy, history, and so forth, as well as the philosophical and historical aspects of the social sciences, sciences, arts and professional studies.
The Institute's programs in support of advanced study provide scholars with time and facilities to carry out their work. In addition, the Institute sponsors formal and informal gatherings to work on specific scholarly projects. In this event the Institute was able to bring senior scholars from Australia, England the United States and across Canada to study Modern Indian Responses to Religious Pluralism.
