The Institute of Governmental Studies (IGS) is an interdisciplinary organized research unit at UC Berkeley, in Philosophy Hall.
The Constitutional Revision and Blanket Primary projects drew together scholars from across the UC system and in several disciplines to analyze important contemporary institutional issues,[when?]
The Institute publishes an occasional magazine called The Public Affairs Report and the e-journal California Journal of Politics and Policy.
[5] In addition to conferences and seminars, IGS regularly hosts visits by public officials to the campus and provides outreach to state government leaders.
