Graduation Celebration

Tuesday, 16th July form 4.30pm to 5.30pm

For those who are Graduating on Tuesday 16th July, we would like to welcome you to a small Graduation Drinks Reception that the Department will be hosting after the ceremony from 4.30pm (approx) in the Philosophy Department.

We hope that you and your guests will be able to join the academic staff here to celebrate your acheivement.

Louise Richardson's (PhD Warwick 2009) paper "Flavour, Taste, and Smell" is the subject of a symposium on the Mind and Language blog with comments from Fiona MacPherson, Mohan Matthen, Matt Nudds, and Barry C. Smith. Why not contribute to the discussion?

The Philosophy Department’s Options Fair this year will be on Tuesday 14^th May 2013 (week 4) at 2pm in Room H0.52. This will be an opportunity for you to hear brief presentations from academic staff on the modules running in 2013/14 and pick up hard copies of the relevant Options Booklet available to download now from the Department’s pre-registration webpages:

http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/fac/soc/philosophy/intranet/ug/emrinformation/pre-registration/

All students wishing to take modules in Philosophy must then pre-register their options on the Department’s online Report-tool system by no later than the end of week 4 (Friday 17^th May 2013). To pre-register, follow the instructions on the above webpage.

The Philosophy Department needs pre-registration information to ensure it can make accurate plans for the modules to be offered next year.

If you do not pre-register for your options, the Department may decide to not run certain modules (if it appears that there is insufficient interest) or you may not be able to take certain modules because there is not enough space in the room that has been booked for the module.

12 to 18 April 2013

In celebration of the 125^th year of the Proceedings, we are proud to announce the start of the first ever Online Conference of the Aristotelian Society: a weeklong event featuring classic papers from our back catalogue, commentaries on these papers delivered by contemporary philosophers, and an online-based discussion forum that is open to everyone. We hope that you’ll enjoy participating in the discussion.

Congratulations to Karen Simecek who has been awarded an IAS Early Career Fellowship Award to study the relationship between poetry and the emotions.
