BPPA Seminar Series 2024

​

One more year, we are delighted to present our Seminar Series, this time taking place in the autumn.  The 2024 edition runs every Monday 4.30-5.30pm (GMT) from November 4th-December 16th.

​

Every week, a philosophy grad student from a British university will present their research at each seminar, and a discussion with the attendants will follow. We want it to be an inclusive, supportive space in which ideas, arguments and views surrounding the topic of the talk are shared and debated. The aim is that not only the presenter will benefit from the session—all participants should!

​

If you would like to attend, please sign up here. You will receive a Zoom link on the eve of every session.
