PHIL - 491. Symposium on Living Philosophers

3 credit(s)
This is a yearlong seminar extending through the Fall and Spring semesters and focusing on the work of a major contemporary philosopher. The course is taught by two Siena faculty members, and includes the regular participation of an external scholar, public lecture series, and visitations by the featured philosopher that culminate in a public panel discussion during the spring semester. Students are expected to produce a substantive research paper, give oral presentations, and belong to a community of research with faculty. The course entails six credits (three credits repeatable one time for full credit), and can be counted as the seminar requirement towards majoring in philosophy. The Symposium may be taken for credit more than once. Permission of the program directors is required to participate.
