Partner with TIAMS

Build a place the world comes to think.

LSU has built the physical infrastructure. TIAMS is building the intellectual infrastructure.

TIAMS brings exceptional mathematicians and scientists together for sustained work on important problems — creating new mathematical models, new collaborations, new research directions, and new opportunities for LSU.

Our current programs begin with quantum science, mathematics, and theoretical science, but the larger vision extends across science: mathematics building and using the models needed in physics, materials, computation, biology, medicine, and emerging areas of discovery.

SHORT-TERM — SPEED

Flexible funding to launch short programs, bring exceptional researchers to LSU, and seed new collaborations quickly.

MEDIUM-TERM — PERMANENCE

A permanent core supporting sustained programs, visitors, postdocs, students, and staff year after year.

LONG-TERM — NATIONAL DISTINCTION

Multiple long and short programs each year across several fields, with a national and international community of visitors, fellows, postdocs, schools, and workshops.

Collaboration Drives Discovery

People → Time → Models → Teams → Proposals & Partnerships → Resources → Stronger LSU

TIAMS is not merely a grant recipient. It is a grant generator.

TIAMS brings the right people together for enough time to turn ideas into collaborations, collaborations into research programs, and research programs into competitive proposals, partnerships, discoveries, and new institutional capacity.

University support can launch the institute. Competitive grants can scale its scientific programs. Philanthropy can give it the freedom and permanence to lead.

An LSU student should be able to work beside the people writing the papers they are studying.

A young researcher should be able to meet the collaborator who changes the direction of a career.

An LSU scientist with an important problem should be able to bring the right people to Baton Rouge and give them the time to work together.

TIAMS is being built to make those encounters routine rather than exceptional. 

Help build the institution.
