This will take place on Thursday 27^th November from 5pm, in R3.41. If you think you might be interested in studying philosophy at postgraduate level, you are strongly encouraged to attend.

At this event you will have the opportunity to:

• Find out from Course Convenors about the postgraduate programmes on offer at the Philosophy Department:- The MPhil in Philosophy, MA in Philosophy, MA in Continental Philosophy, and MA in Philosophy and Literature
• Find out from our current postgraduate students about what the courses are like and the kinds of topics they research
• Get advice on how to apply
• Find out about our Department Scholarships for taught postgraduate courses, including a scholarship competition open only to Warwick undergraduates.

Drinks (including wine) will be available.

The 89th Joint Session of the Aristotelian Society and the Mind Association will be held at the University of Warwick from 10 to 12 July 2015.

There are a large number of Open Session places available, with no restrictions on the areas of philosophy that may be addressed. The intention is to accommodate all philosophical material that is suitable for presentation, though a more selective procedure may have to be adopted in case the number of suitable submissions exceeds the available places. There are 20 minutes available for each Open Session talk (plus an additional 10 minutes for discussion).

Submission deadline: 1 February 2015.
