I am very happy to announce a new scholarship in Georgia State University’s highly ranked terminal MA program in Philosophy.  Our new graduate “Scholarship in Liberalism” is a competitively awarded scholarship for an outstanding student with a demonstrated interest in the arguments of historical or contemporary philosophical liberals (in the tradition of figures such as Locke, Smith, Hume, and Mill) about issues such as freedom, justice, political authority, social order, and related themes. We expect the award would provide a $15,000 stipend for each year in the two-year program plus a full tuition waiver.  (This is but one of several available special awards.) Some further details are here.

Here is the Department website.  We’ve long had a strength in Social and Political Philosophy and Philosophy of Law and we place many of our graduates into excellent PhD programs.

I especially hope that young BHLs will consider applying!
