How the partnership works

Partner universities serve as institutional entry points for the IFPASA fellowship program. They identify and nominate exceptional faculty members for Senior Fellowship, and invite qualified graduate students to register for the GRAT® test as a pathway to Junior Fellowship.

Partnership with IFPASA positions your university within a distinguished global academic network — providing your faculty and students with access to international arbitration experience, peer review opportunities, and a network of over 7,400 researchers across 50+ countries.
