Doctoral School of Philosophy

The Doctoral School of Philosophy at the HSE offers a world-class postgraduate education in philosophy. We seek young scholars interested in conducting original research and provide them with a firm foundation on which to build an academic career.

Our programme combines the best traditions of Russian philosophical instruction with tried and tested international teaching practices. HSE doctoral students go on to do philosophy at the highest level.
