Postgraduates The Australasian Postgraduate Committee takes responsibility for scheduling the annual Australasian Postgraduate Philosophy Conference (APPC) and maintaining networks amongst postgraduate philosophers. Australasian Postgraduate Philosophy Conferences 2023 Australasian Postgraduate Philosophy Conference (APPC) - call for bids to host
The AAP postgraduate committee would like to welcome bids to host the 2023 Australasian Philosophy Postgraduate Conference (APPC). The APPC allows postgraduate students from Australasia to present their work, debate their ideas, receive feedback from peers, and form collaborations across institutions. It also presents an opportunity for postgraduate students from a chosen institution to organise this fantastic event to build their skill set, enhance their academic CV and contribute to the important landscape of Australasian philosophy. We are looking for a group of dedicated postgraduate students from an Australasian university to form an organising committee to bring this event to life. The AAP postgraduate committee has run this conference online for the past three years and is now excited to help transition this event back to an on-campus experience. We are here to provide as much support and guidance as necessary! You can find further information about the hosting requirements and expectations in our 2023 hosting guide. We encourage any questions to be sent to our contact email address, postgraduates@aap.org.au.
