[sunweb]

Applications are still invited for the CEU summer course on  "The History and Philosophy of the Concepts of Scientific Law and Probability" to be held July 6-17, 2020 in Budapest. We invite applications from graduate students, postdocs and junior faculty and researchers. Tuition waivers are available. See course details below.


The History and Philosophy of the Concepts of Scientific Law and Probability
https://summeruniversity.ceu.edu/concepts-of-scientific-law-and-probability-2020
COURSE DIRECTOR: Barry Loewer (Rutgers University)
FACULTY: David Albert (Columbia University); Nina Emery (Mount Holyoke College); Michael Esfeld (University of Lausanne); Alan Hajek (Australian National University); Ferenc Huoranszki (Central European University); Carl Hoefer (University of Barcelona); Berna Kilinc (Bogazici University); Dustin Lazarovici (University of Lausanne); and Glenn Shafer (Rutgers Business School)
The purpose of the course is to acquaint course participants with recent work on the history and metaphysics of the concept of scientific law and related concepts that are central to the development and understanding of science. These concepts are important to philosophical accounts of both science and to metaphysics. While there has been a great deal of active research on writing on the metaphysics of laws and also on the history of the concept of laws there has been little interaction between researchers involved in each project. Such interaction will greatly enhance work on both projects. One of the goals of the summer course is to initiate and encourage such interaction.
