SIPP@Brown is a two-week residential program for undergraduate students who are interested in pursuing a graduate degree in philosophy and who are interested in contributing to the promotion of diversity and inclusion within Philosophy. The program is primarily intended for students who may not otherwise have had access to similar programming or mentorship. This year’s program will take place from June 24th to July 5th, 2024 at Brown University.

During the program, participants will attend two daily seminars. They will also participate in regular social and educational activities arranged by the Brown Department of Philosophy and in the SIPP@Brown Conference. Participants can expect to leave the program with a better understanding of what it is like to study philosophy in a graduate program and how to prepare applications for both MA and PhD programs.

SIPP@Brown provides food and lodging for students during the program and reimburses up to $500 of travel costs to and from Providence, RI. Students also receive a $500 stipend.

The directors of the 2024 program are Ryan Doody (Brown University) and Simone Gubler (UNC Chapel Hill). (Previous co-directors have been: Amy Berg, Arianna Falbo, Nina Emery, Anna Brinkerhoff, Zach Barnett, Iain Laidley, and Thomas Fisher.)
