Vision of Wien International Scholarship Program
The vision and generosity of its namesake, Lawrence A., and Mae L. Wien, and the entire Wien family, continue to be illustrated in the dedicated students and alumni who serve as leaders on campus and throughout the world in the areas of science, the arts, politics, business, and the humanities.
Since its inception, the Wien International Scholarship Program has brought over 894 scholars from 115 countries to Brandeis, and its graduates continue to be committed to Brandeis University and to improving the world.
Wien Scholars are identified not only by their academic achievement, but for their contributions inside and outside of the classroom before, during, and after their years at Brandeis.
About the Wien International Scholarship
Brandeis faculty members and alumni are among the world’s leading theorists and analysts of globalization in its broadest sense, exploring the benign and baleful effects of globalization on economies, cultural traditions, and politics.
The university’s rich array of scholarship and coursework in area studies and languages speaks to an equally important commitment to studying and teaching about particular peoples and societies. The legacy of U.S. Supreme Court Justice Louis D. Brandeis, for whom the university is named, is a constant reminder that scholarship here is bound to the search for social justice.
A Social Concern
Brandeis University’s values have fueled its drive to create and sustain global partnerships. The search for social justice — broadly defined — is an integral part of our approach, as is skepticism about conventional wisdom.
Brandeis has a commitment to issues of sustainable development, often using the bridges of arts and culture. And the university’s ties to the Jewish community fortify its emphasis on interdependence and collective thought and action.
