Scots Philosophical Association

Description

Founded in 1900 as the Scots Philosophical Club, the Scots Philosophical Association is the professional association of philosophers in Scotland. Its primary purpose is to promote the study and teaching of philosophy in Scotland. This is achieved through the organization of an annual meeting, the sponsorship of conferences and workshops, the sponsorship of fellowships (including the annual Scots Philosophical Association Centenary Fellowship), and the provision of grants to philosophy departments (which fund seminars, faculty travel, and postgraduate activities). The Scots Philosophical Association is the joint owner of the Philosophical Quarterly.
