Brian Melchior (B.)

I am a Lecturer in the Philosophy Department at the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, teaching a range of classes in the Global Studies, European Studies, and Arts and Culture programs. Previously, I completed an MPhil in History (with distinction) at the University of Cambridge and a BSc in International Relations (Cum Laude) at Leiden University. 

My current research examines how Indonesia's first scholars of the humanities - philosophers, literary critics, and historians - established the foundations of their respective disciplines in the decades following their country's independence.
