This original model needs you: the funding of the Institute, a private foundation in the public interest, depends largely on donor’s generosity.
Your support is essential.
Leon Motchane, with a passion for mathematics was the man behind the creation of the Institut des Hautes Études Scientifiques
Unparalleled performance, of the twelve permanent professors in mathematics recruited by IHES since its creation, eight have received the Fields Medal, the highest distinction in mathematics.
Researchers come from all over the world to take part in the general IHES programme or in specific programmes. They are selected following an application or invited by the Scientific Council.
Fundraising, including asset revenues, accounts for more than a third of the Institute’s annual budget. The generosity of our donors plays an essential role in supporting the Institute’s activities. IHES extends its heartfelt thanks to all its donors for their generous contributions.
