Our Projects

The centre has institutional agreements in place that allow certain students or early career scholars to participate in one of the centre's programmes free of charge. This place list all of our current agreements. If you would like to establish an agreement between the centre and your university, please contact the centre's director. The centre is always open to considering new projects.

Bangor University

Any student or member of staff at Bangor University can participate in either the standard or expanded programme free of charge. This initiative is space-limited and will be offered on a first-come, first-served basis. A waitlist will be put in place when capacity is reached.

 

In addition, the centre is running a Student Selected Component at North Wales Medical School on the social, ethical, and legal aspects of medicine. Up to twelve year 3 and year 4 medical students will participate in a modified version of the expanded programme. The second review they write will be completed entirely independently and examined to determine whether they pass the component.

 

Medical students will participate in an interactive bioethics workshop in March and choose their Student Selected Component in May. North Wales Medical School will select up to twelve students in July who will begin the centre's expanded programme at the start of the following academic year in October. Students will review their first book with their component tutor in the first term before December and will review their second book independently in the second term. They should submit their review to their tutor for examination by the end of May and will receive their result in early June. They will present both reviews at the Year 3 and 4 SSC Showcase in the final week of June.

Past Projects

British Postgraduate Philosophy Association

In the 2024-25 academic year, the standard programme was offered to members of the British Postgraduate Philosophy Association free of charge as a membership benefit. The centre ran five reading groups on eastern philosophy, philosophy of science, political philosophy, and two on moral theory. Participants met weekly with the centre's director to read and discuss books one chapter at a time. All six reviews were eventually published in leading journals of philosophy.
