== 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<div style="float:right; width:300px; margin-left:10px; margin-top:10px; margin-bottom:10px;">__TOC__</div>-->== Standards, research interestsPractices, CVs, partial publication lists, etc. and Guidelines ==
However, while this site may be where your research into programs starts, it decidedly should not be where it ends# The criterion for program inclusion is that a philosophy (or HPS) program have at least one full-time faculty member who self-identifies as a philosopher of biology. You need # The standard of evidence required to dig around and do your due diligence—e.g., contact people within make the programs<ref>This site list is not in the business of giving prospective students advicean official (or personal) university-affiliated website—on how to select programs or anything elsea publicly-accessible CV—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 lists philosophy of salt since everyone's experiences differ, and disgruntled students will paint biology as a radically different picture than contented onesprimary research interest. For that reason, seeking out multiple sources can be worthwhile.</ref>—in order # Philosophers who have made contributions to put yourself in the best possible position to make philosophy of biology but who do not list phil bio as an informed decision about where to apply.
