Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

Contents: This course will provide support and guidance for students who are either preparing for doctoral research or currently working on their doctorates. The course is open to students working in all areas of philosophy and all philosophical traditions. The reasons for this inclusiveness are as follows: (a) it is important to cultivate some awareness of issues, problems, and debates that fall outside of one’s own areas of research-expertise; (b) being able to engage with perspectives that are very different from one’s own is part of what it is to be able to think philosophically; (c) philosophical work can be informed and enriched by integrating concepts and arguments from seemingly distant areas of research, in ways that are often unanticipated and come as a surprise.

This course will therefore seek to bring different areas of philosophy and different perspectives into dialogue with each other, in ways that are complementary and mutually enriching.

Methods:
• reading work-in-progress by other doctoral students
• presenting one’s own work in seminars
• critically discussing arguments and ideas
• advice by the seminar leader on writing, presenting, and publishing philosophical research, and on how to pursue an academic career

Aims:
Students will:
• become familiar with a range of issues and research areas
• learn to make connections between different philosophical perspectives, methods, concepts, and positions
• practice presenting their own research
• learn how to better structure their work, clarify their philosophical positions, and improve their arguments
• learn how to write research proposals
• refine their critical abilities through in-depth discussion of their own ideas and those of others
• gain a better understanding of how to publish philosophical research and pursue an academic career
