Postgraduate Seminar 2012-13

This seminar is open to ALL Graduate students in the Department of Philosophy.  It runs throughout both semesters, and the students run their own series over the summer.  Each week a student presents a paper, followed by discussion.  (This year traditionally starts with a member of staff).  A hand-out, abstract or draft of the paper is usually circulated in advance.  Anyone from outside the department wishing to attend should email Bob Stern (r.stern@sheffield.ac.uk) (Autumn) or Rosanna Keefe (r.keefe@sheffield.ac.uk) (Spring).
