This wiki provides an unranked list of Ph.D. and terminal M.A. programs that have strengths in philosophy of biology. '''Since it's a wiki, [[#How to Contribute|you can edit it]], so please do'''. The primary intended audience is prospective and current graduate students with interests in philosophy of biology who want to get the lay of the land by seeing who works where, and on what.

== Note to Prospective Graduate Students ==
The purpose of this wiki is to aid your search for philosophy of biology graduate programs that suit your tastes. It does so in two ways:

* By listing as many philosophy of biology graduate programs as possible.
* By making research into those programs more efficient and convenient by identifying the relevant philosophy of biology faculty and providing easy access to their bios, research interests, CVs, partial publication lists, etc. 

However, while this site may be where your research into programs starts, it decidedly should not be where it ends. You need to dig around and do your due diligence&mdash;e.g., contact people within the programs<ref>This site is not in the business of giving prospective students advice&mdash;on how to select programs or anything else&mdash;but it can be very helpful and illuminating to contact graduate students currently enrolled in departments you are considering and asking if they would be willing to share their impressions of and experience in the programs. The worst that can happen is that they say 'no'. Of course, what they share must be taken with a grain of salt since everyone's experiences differ, and disgruntled students will paint a radically different picture than contented ones. For that reason, seeking out multiple sources can be worthwhile.</ref>&mdash;in order to put yourself in the best possible position to make an informed decision about where to apply. The [http://www.apaonline.org/ American Philosophical Association], for instance, provides a useful [http://c.ymcdn.com/sites/www.apaonline.org/resource/resmgr/Grad_guide/gg14_complete.pdf Guide to Graduate Programs] that is worth consulting. Good luck!

''' Philosophy and the Life Sciences at Cincinnati '''

The PhD track in Philosophy and the Life Sciences approaches its subject matter by putting the science in the driver’s seat. Students on this track are not only expected to cultivate a broad philosophical background, but also a competence in the science in which they intend to specialize (some pursue and MS). Students can also expect considerable attention to be paid to professional development of research and teaching.

NB: The Philosophy Department at the University of Cincinnati also offers a "traditional track" to a philosophy PhD, and graduate students need not decide whether to pursue the traditional track or the Philosophy and the Life Sciences track until their first or second year of study.

== Standards, Practices, and Guidelines ==

# The criterion for program inclusion is just that a philosophy (or HPS) 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 an official (or personal) university-affiliated website&mdash;or a publicly-accessible CV&mdash;that lists philosophy of biology as a primary research interest.
# Philosophers who have made contributions to the philosophy of biology but who do not list phil bio as an AOS/AOC are usually not listed.
# Affiliated, part-time, and emeritus faculty who work closely with graduate students should be labelled as such inside parentheses next to their names. 
# Bioethics, environmental ethics, philosophy of neuroscience/cognitive science, philosophy of medicine, and history of biology&mdash;in and of themselves&mdash;are not counted as philosophy of biology.

A [[Longer Version|longer version]] of these guidelines is available.

== How to Contribute ==

<strong>This is a wiki, so anyone can contribute</strong>. No account is needed&mdash;though you are encouraged to create one&mdash;and all changes can be rolled back, so edit with a free hand.

'''Making Edits'''

You can make edits in one of two ways: by clicking 'Edit', which enables [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WYSIWYG WYSIWYG] (or visual) editing, ala a wordprocessor. Alternately, you can click 'Edit source', which allows you to edit the wiki markup in plaintext. Use whichever method you prefer. '''It takes a little longer to open the editing window in visual mode''' because the server has to translate wiki markup to html on the fly. So be patient. If things are too sluggish, you can switch over to 'Edit source'.

Wiki [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Formatting formatting/markup] is very straightforward, and all you need to do is mimic the current entries since formatting is standardized.

If programs or faculty have been overlooked&mdash;which is assuredly the case&mdash;you are encouraged to add them, even if you are not a member of that department. Also, information will date rapidly, so by all means help keep things up to date.

'''Wiki Program Pages'''

Every program listed also has a separate Wiki Program Page where additional information can be provided to prospective students. While the style and format of this main page should be kept consistent, individual Wiki Program Pages can take any form whatsoever. To edit one of these pages, simply follow the Wiki Program Page link underneath the department listing of interest and edit that page. 

The following programs have added considerably to their Wiki Program Pages. Feel free to mimic them.

* [[University_of_California,_Davis#.VLbPZh-c200|University of California, Davis]]
* [[University_of_Cincinnati#.VLbP4x-c200|University of Cincinnati]]
* [[University_of_Minnesota,_Twin_Cities#.VLbQHB-c200|University of Minnesota, Twin Cities]]
* [[University_of_Pennsylvania#.VLbQNR-c200|University of Pennsylvania]]

== Browse Programs by Category ==

Below are two ways to browse programs by category. The first sorts all programs by number of philosophy of biology faculty. The second sorts U.S. programs by state.

You can find a listing of Australasian and Canadian programs by specialty on [[Austalasian and Canadian Programs by Specialty|this page]]. Once that list includes programs from other parts of the world, they will be incorporated. As always, prospective students should fact-check the faculty numbers listed because academics change jobs frequently. (Note: 'P' stands for Page.)
