DEADLINE FOR 2024-2025: FRIDAY, OCTOBER 25 (by 5:00PM)
The contest is held once each academic year; the next upcoming deadline will be found above. Submissions are limited to one per year and must come from students active in either the MA or PhD program at the time of submission. Papers may be on any topic in philosophy and any size not exceeding 10,000 words.
Papers are to be submitted electronically in either Word or PDF format. To submit a paper, you should (i) prepare your paper for blind review and name the electronic file using the title or an abbreviated version thereof; (ii) prepare a very brief document named “Information Page for [Title]” the content of which just gives the paper title and identifies you as the author; (iii) submit both documents to the department secretary before the deadline. The secretary shall send the papers (but not the information pages) to the Graduate Coordinator, who then arranges for their anonymous assessment.
