Dear Colleagues,
With the start of the new semester, we would like to recommence our
DocWIP Series and are now open to new submissions for talks!
The doctoral work in progress seminar (DocWIP) is a regular event run by
the Vienna Doctoral School of Philosophy (VDP), co-organized by Flora
Löffelmann and Jackson Sawatzky. DocWIP provides an informal space for
doctoral researchers to present ideas, receive comments, and socialize
with their peers. It is designed to help build a close-knit doctoral
community, in which researchers can benefit from each others' knowledge,
support, and constructive criticism. Meetings typically take place on
Wednesday afternoons, once a month, in Neues Institutsgebäude (NIG). For
meeting links, email updates, or requests to take part, please contact
Flora Löffelmann (flora.loeffelmann(a)univie.ac.at) or Jackson Sawatzky
(jackson.sawatzky(a)univie.ac.at). Presentations can be given in either
English or German.
The projected dates for this semester are the 2nd of November, 30th of
November, 11th of January, and 1st of February. Unless requested
otherwise, the time will be 16:45 - 18:45. This will allow a maximum of
30-45 minutes for a presentation, a short break, and then time for a Q
and A. Students preparing for their faculty presentation (FÖP) are also
encouraged to present, as are masters students who wish to give a talk
on their thesis or receive feedback on ideas for future doctoral research.
We strongly encourage interlocutors and presenters from all areas of
philosophy, and especially from underrepresented groups, to (regularly)
attend these sessions.
If you like to present at the DocWIP, we kindly request that you contact
us with your preferred dates. Nearer to the time of your presentation,
we would also request that you send a title and abstract, in order that
we can forward information about your talk to our community.
We look forward to hearing from you all!
Flora and Jackson
