SUMMARY:Summer school on philosophical engineering
 , Duesseldorf, Germany
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20190825
DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20190831
LOCATION:Duesseldorf, Germany
DESCRIPTION:Contemporary analytic philosophy makes
  heavy use of formal methods. However, most of the
  time people engaged in such a formal endeavour ar
 e highly specialised, for which reason they quite 
 often focus on one particular branch of formal phi
 losophy. This is also reflected in contemporary ph
 ilosophical curricula, which typically offer highl
 y specialised courses on particular formal methods
 , but only rarely cover a broad range of them. Thi
 s summer school aims at providing an introductory 
 overview of the main methods applied in formal phi
 losophy or philosophical engineering: logical devi
 sing, model building, programming and simulating, 
 and employing digital resources in the broader rea
 lm of digital humanities.  By bringing together in
 ternational experts in these fields, participants 
 will gain competencies in applying a broad range o
 f formal methods in their field of interest; for t
 his purpose, each of the mentioned topics is cover
 ed by professional instructions, exercises, intera
 ctive group work, and the discussion of results by
  the participants. Furthermore, participants will 
 be provided with opportunities to independently de
 epen their competencies in a particular topic of i
 nterest following completion of the course.The sum
 mer school is suitable for anyone with some basic 
 knowledge in logic (as is gained, e.g., by complet
 ing an elementary university course on logic). The
  main target audience is MA and PhD students, howe
 ver, this is not an exclusive criterion, for which
  reason the summer school is also open for BA stud
 ents.
