The IIIS brings together researchers from a wide range of academic departments in TCD. Academic staff members who conduct research in areas related to international integration studies are appointed as Research Associates.

A number of external researchers are also affiliated with the IIIS as Research Associates.

The IIIS provides accommodation for a number of Research Fellows who are appointed to research projects funded through the Institute and led by Research Associates. Doctoral research students whose dissertation area falls within the remit of the Institute’s research themes are associated as IIIS Research Student Associates.

The research capacity of the IIIS is further augmented through its visitor programme, which allows leading international experts to carry out research at the IIIS.

The IIIS is led by the Director, Professor Louis Brennan and is managed by Colette Keleher.  Professor Brennan has been associated with the IIIS since its foundation. His particular research interests are in supply chain management, global business and technology management, and culture and operations management, and he is associated with the Centre for Global Business Systems in the School of Business. He was appointed Director of the IIIS in January 2011. Enquiries about Institute activities, events, publications or programmes should be made to Colette Keleher in the first instance.
