Description

Do you sometimes wonder what your contribution ‘as a philosopher’ might be? And, in the midst of protests against budget cuts, do you ask yourself what these could mean for you and your career? On Friday 7 March, OZSW’s PhD Council presents a new event for all philosophy PhD’s: PhD Day. This event is all about us –  PhD candidates working in the Netherlands. We will have ample time for discussion between ourselves, with established academics and, importantly, to meet one another over drinks. The program focusses on two main questions: what is (still) the role of (theoretical, practical, historical) philosophy? And how to navigate academia in crisis?
