Seminars

Symposion’s seminars are free voluntary courses run by students for students. A seminar offers a welcoming environment not just for reading and studying philosophy, but also for doing philosophy. These seminars offer a unique opportunity to discuss subjects that aren’t covered by the regular curriculum, as well as the possibility to engage in philosophical discussions with your fellow students in a relaxed setting

At the beginning of each semester, members can present their ideas for organizing a new seminar. Later, sign-ups will open to all members. These announcements will be sent in our WhatsApp Announcements Chats. If you’d like to join these chatgroups, or have any other questions about seminars, feel free to send us an email via bestuur.symposion@gmail.com.
