Student Led Seminars

Symposion’s student-led 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 Announcements Chats. If have any questions about seminars, feel free to send us an email via bestuur.symposion@gmail.com.
