Boğaziçi University’s philosophy students and the Ph.D.
A story about 189* of this department’s graduates
Stephen Voss | May 2018
This story has two chapters. The first chapter presents alumni of this university’s philosophy department who are currently enrolled in Ph.D. programs. It mentions the university where they are enrolled and their email address. The second chapter presents department alumni who have received the Ph.D. degree, and it mentions the university that awarded their degree, the title of their dissertation, their email address, and their academic affiliation if any. In both chapters, doctoral work is in philosophy unless otherwise noted. (*One person is mentioned in both chapters!)
The story has two large morals. The first concerns the quality of the philosophical education these people have received in this university. The second and more important concerns the quality of these 189 people. They can be proud of their department; it can be still more proud of them.
Five years ago, we observed that Boğaziçi philosophers are taking over the world. In December 2012, it was students who were organizing the revolution: 88 of them were pursuing the Ph.D. at 44 universities in 10 countries worldwide. By June 2018, 52 of those students had earned their Ph.D., and it is the turn of alumni who are now teachers and scholars. In February 2016, our alumni were affiliated with 79 academic institutions in 10 countries. Today they’re affiliated with 91 such institutions, and several have founded and direct their own enterprises. Once again the cry rings out: Today the seminar room, tomorrow the world!
