Lahore School of Economics launch of a Visiting Scholar Program with the School of Interdisciplinary Area Studies at Oxford University
February 02, 2015
In January 2015, the Lahore School of Economics launched a Visiting Scholar Program with the School of Interdisciplinary Area Studies (SIAS) at Oxford University - the Oxford-Lahore School ILM Program. The first batch of four Lahore School students from the PhD Economics program are currently registered for the Lent term and are attending lectures and seminars as well as interacting with faculty from both SIAS and the Department of Economics at Oxford to discuss their dissertation research.
The students are being hosted by Professor Matthew McCartney (Director, South Asian Studies) at Oxford University. Professor McCartney inaugurated the ILM Program along with Dr. Azam Chaudhry (Dean, Department of Economics, Lahore School of Economics) and welcomed the four scholars: Rabia Arif, Maryiam Haroon, Zunia Tirmazee and Nida Jamil. The scholars also met with Hermoine Lee (President of Wolfson College, Oxford University) to discuss areas of further collaboration between Oxford University and the Lahore School of Economics.
