Ph.D. Program in
Logic and
Philosophy of Science
|
Logic and
Philosophy of Science is a
subprogram of the Ph.D. Program in
Philosophy at Eötvös Loránd University
Budapest. The main scope of the program is
logic and formal approaches to philosophy
of science, first of all philosophy of
physics and mathematics. We also offer
courses and research topics in the field
of philosophy of language and formal
semantics.
The Logic and Philosophy of Science
program operates in cooperation with other
Ph.D. programs in Philosophy at Eötvös
University, especially with the program in
Analytic Philosophy. There is
coordination and several points of
connection between the two programs in the
areas covered, courses offered, student
supervision, and program requirements.
The Logic and Philosophy of Science
program is open to both Hungarian and
foreign students who hold an MA/MSc degree
either in philosophy or in some other
relevant field. All courses of the program
are available in English. The discussion
groups, seminar sessions, consultations
and exams are held in English (except if
all participants speak Hungarian).
