Starting in September 2013, the Center for Advanced Study in the Social Sciences (CEACS) will move its activities to the Getafe campus of Carlos III University. The CEACS will be integrated in the new Carlos III-Juan March Institute of Social Sciences. It is a public-private partnership, with participation of the Fundación Juan March for the next six years. The CEACS faculty, the library, the Advisory Committee, and the network of Juan March PhDs will join the new Institute. Apart from the CEACS faculty, distinguished professors and researchers from Carlos III will also join the new Institute. The goal is to establish a center of excellence in the social sciences that will launch a graduate program with an international profile and will conduct high quality research.
The provost of the Carlos III University, Daniel Peña, and the Director of the Fundación Juan March, Javier Gomá, signed an agreement that establishes the creation of the new Institute on December 21st 2012.
On January 31st 2013, the Oversight Committee envisaged in the agreement was created. It is formed by Javier Gomá and Tomás Villanueva (on behalf of the Fundación Juan March) and by Juan Romo and Carlos Balaguer (on behalf of Carlos III University). Its first decision was to appoint Ignacio Sánchez-Cuenca as director of the Carlos III-Juan March Institute of Social Sciences, starting on September 1st 2013.
