The MWF Society

The MWF Society was founded to strengthen the connections between fellows of all cohorts. We recognize the value in academia of a network of peers. This network offers the possibility of research collaboration, sabbatical visitations, and transmission of ideas. Given the scale of the Max Weber Programme, we believe that a common platform is essential to harness these positive network effects. The MWF Society website is state-of-the-art and allows for the efficient transmission of information, ideas, and announcements between all fellows. We hope you regularly check the website for updates and information from your fellow fellows.
