2026 Theme: coming soon!
The theme of this year’s institute is coming soon!
It is not necessary that students have any previous experience with the subject — the institute is intended to introduce students to the discipline and practice of philosophy. Students who do have previous experience with philosophy are welcome as well! The institute will serve them by expanding upon their familiarity with the field of philosophy and further developing their critical thinking and communication skills.
