Philosophy of Biology Ph.D. Programs
From Philosophy of Biology Graduate Programs
This is simply a list. Soon, though, it will be a long list with many links.
The criteria for inclusion is just that a philosophy Ph.D. program have at least one full-time faculty member who self-identifies as a philosopher of biology. The standard of evidence required to make the list is basically a faculty (or personal) web page of some kind or other that lists philosophy of biology as an AOS.[1] Accordingly, philosophers who have made significant contributions to the philosophy of biology but who do not list phil bio as a current AOS/AOC are not listed.[2]

Notes
- ↑ For the purposes of this list, History and Philosophy of Science departments count as Philosophy Departments, while free-standing Science & Technology Studies (or Science Studies) departments don't. The rationale for this is that this wiki exists primarily to help prospective Ph.D. students interested in philosophy of biology get the lay of the land by seeing who works where. The assumption is that these people want to enroll in philosophy programs or HPS programs, not STS programs.
- ↑ Peter Machamer and James Woodward at the University of Pittsburgh Department of History and Philosophy of Science are two examples.
- ↑ Though he does not list philosophy of biology as a current AOS, Kitcher writes on his faculty profile page--accessed 2014-11-18--that he is willing to work with philosophy of biology graduate students.
