AMERICAN PHILOSOPHICAL ASSOCIATION- Undergraduate summer diversity institutes accepting applications for 2021

 

Greetings DAVID,   If:  you know any students from backgrounds underrepresented in philosophy who are interested in pursuing further study in the field, I encourage you to share this call for applications for undergraduate diversity institutes in philosophy with them.   Diversity institutes support students from groups underrepresented in the discipline of philosophy as they hone their philosophical interests, become part of a community, and gain insight into the graduate admissions process. Further details about each institute, including eligibility and application requirements, may be found on the APA page listing summer undergraduate diversity institutes in philosophy. Though these institutes are typically residential programs that occur at university campuses, most institutes will be held virtually this year.   The following diversity institutes will host a program in summer 2021:   Philosophy in an Inclusive Key Summer Institute (PIKSI)-Rock — June 3–June 11, 2021 Virtual Applications are due February 5, 2021.

Pittsburgh Summer Program (PSP) — July 12–16, 2021 University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA. The program may switch to a virtual format if deemed necessary. Applications are due March 1, 2020.
