International University College of Turin Master Photography Scholarships

The IUC Photography Scholarships was established in 2006 for the interdisciplinary and comparative study of law, economics and finance, in response to the clear lack of a transnational set of normative principles capable of controlling economic processes. The Photography Scholarships program specifically looks to engage students and young scholars from all over the world with special emphasis on the periphery, or ‘global south’, with leading figures in economics, law and the humanities.

The IUC offers a 1 year LLM program in Comparative Law, Economics and Finance as well as a 2 year MSc. A number of renown intellectuals and scholars from around the world serve on the faculty and advisory board, including: Guido Calabresi (former Dean of the Yale School of Law), David Gerber (Chicago Kent School of Law), Josef Halevi (University of Sydney), Duncan Kennedy (Harvard Law School), Ugo Mattei (University of Torino & University of California, Hastings), Stefano Rodotà (coauthor of the European Charter of Fundamental Rights), Amartya Sen (Nobel Laureate), Gunther Teubner (Frankfurt School), Jan Toporowski (SOAS, University of London), Gustavo Zagrebelsky (Emeritus President of the Italian Constitutional Court).

Our Photography Scholarships students are from more than 40 different countries, spanning four continents, representative of a diverse range of disciplines and cultural backgrounds, with a focus on offering opportunities to students coming from social, economic, and/or political challenges, particularly students from former colonized territories (e.g., the global south) and other newer peripheries.

We have already established partnerships with institutions from around the globe including: The University of Copenhagen (DK), University of California, Hastings (USA), University of Fribourg (Switzerland), University of Illinois, Universidad Pompeu Fabra (Barcelona), Universidad de Chile (Santiago), Universidad de Concepcion (Chile), Universidad Torcuato di Tella, Universidad Nacional Mayor De San Marcos (Peru), Libera Università Internazionale degli Studi Sociali Guido Carli (Rome), Lanzhou University (China), Ruaha University College (Tanzania), Université de Bamako (Mali), National Law School of India University (Bangalore), Universidad San Francisco Xavier de Chuquisaca (Bolivia), University of Eastern Piedmont (Italy), Radzyner School of Law, Herzliya (Israel), Institut des Hautes Etudes sur la Justice (Paris), Universidad Nacional del Sur, Bahia Blanca (Argentina), Center for International Media Ethics (USA, Paris) Higher School of Economics (Moscow), UN Commission of International Trade Law (UNCITRAL), UN Interregional Crime and Justice Research (UNICRI), International Training Center-International Labor Organization (ITC-ILO).
