Theme 2026: Conversations Across Disciplines
Following a succesful first edition in 2025 with reflections on the diverse schools of thoughts which have influenced our common perception of technology, this year the Blended Intensive Programme (BIP) will draw lecturers with backgrounds in different disciplines to discuss how these disciplines intersect with the philosophy of technology.
From June 8 until 12, 2026, master’s students, doctoral students, and postdoctoral researchers are again welcome to participate in the BIP on European Philosophies of Technology at Sorbonne Nouvelle University in Paris.
