The Institute for Advanced Study [4K] Ambient Walk in Princeton, NJ

The Institute for Advanced Study is a private center for theoretical research and intellectual inquiry. Located in Princeton, New Jersey, it has served as the home of many famous scientists and scholars. The list includes J. Robert Oppenheimer, famous mathematicians such as John von Neumann and Kurt Gödel, Diplomats like George F. Kennan and most famously, Albert Einstein himself.

The IAS has had a major impact on mathematics, physics, economic theory, and world affairs. Thirty-four Nobel Laureates and forty-two Fields Medalists have been affiliated with the institute. Despite being directly adjacent to Princeton University, the institute is independent. Its guiding principle is the pursuit of knowledge for its own sake. The IAS played a key role in the transfer of intellectual capital from Europe to America during the 1930s and the second World War.

I visited the IAS this September and wanted to share some footage I collected during my visit.

I am a physics graduate student at TUM and am planning to upload physics content, comedy skits and share some of my life experiences on my channel. I started this project as a hobby because I felt I had ideas and experiences I wanted to share.

I would really appreciate feedback, so feel free to post a comment below and subscribe for new videos!

Loved the videos about your undergraduate academic experience in TUM. The part which scared me the most was how 300+ student lecture classes are basically professors reading off a script. I hope you will make a seperate playlist on TUM. As to how to manage monthly living costs in a city like Munich, the idiosyncrasies of German life and how to earn money as an international student in that city. Also about how the German university education system varies from the American one and how they are perceived abroad

Hi! Really loving your videos. Thanks for sharing. I wanted some advice regarding colleges. Is there any way maybe we can connect?

I'm in TUM searching for IAS and here I found a fellow tum student! BTW the airline view over Munich is also very cool
