Methodology Workshop
August 12-16, 2008


The workshop is a five-day seminar, for graduate students, on philosophical methodology. It will take place on the UT Austin campus, 8/12-8/16. Possible subtopics include (but are not limited to) intuition, conceptual analysis, conceivability, thought experiments, reflective equilibrium, analyticity, reduction, and ontological commitment.

Each day of the workshop will include two or three seminar-style sessions led by faculty. In addition, there may be some number of faculty-led round table discussions. We hope for a high amount of interactivity amongst all participants. The workshop will also feature a number of optional social outings including dinners, outdoor activities, and the finest of the Austin music scene.Offsite Link
