Nijmegen’s Center for the History of Philosophy and Science is the world’s only research center that combines the history of philosophy with that of science. As a student in the Research Master's Programme in the History of Philosophy you get the chance to experience what it is like to be part of a tight knit research group that works at the forefront of the world's research on the relation between philosophy and science.
You will explore issues in the history of philosophy and science from Antiquity to the contemporary period. Our specialties are: ancient cosmologies; medieval natural philosophy; the Scientific Revolution and the birth of modern philosophy; idealism and phenomenology; the emergence and end of the metaphysical tradition; philosophy in the technological age. You will learn how to publish articles in academic peer-reviewed journals and apply for grants and PhD positions.
