Visiting Scholars

Usually each year, the Department of Philosophy invites to campus a number of Visiting Scholars and Postdoctoral Fellows, who are supported by outside funding for research and work with one of the members of the department. Visiting Scholars and Fellows are expected to contribute to the life of the department by engaging with faculty and students through workshops and conversation. NB: Visiting Scholars and Fellows often stay the whole academic year at Chicago (unless otherwise indicated below).
