Tell us about your experiences
We would very much like to know about your experiences on the job market. How well do you feel the programme you followed with us prepared you for your job? Did you acquire adequate skills during your studies and is your knowledge sufficient and do you have points of improvement for the curriculum?
You are also very much welcome to share your experiences as a speaker during an alumni event or during the annual Career Day for faculty students. Please reach out to us.
Tell our students about your experiences
Although you come across philosophers everywhere in society, a recurring question from our students (and their parents) is: what jobs are there for me? Of course, our alumni are the ones to best answer this question. By sharing your knowledge about this, you will not only be of enormous help to our students, you’ll also gain contacts you might profit from later on.
Ask a philosopher: let us do research for your employer
Our Philosophy Knowledge Centre (in Dutch: KCF) connects professional philosophers and philosophy in practice by helping companies and organizations with a philosophical research question in various ways. For example, we can do this through interviews, research, an internship or by giving workshops.
Does your employer have a research question with a philosophical component or can they perhaps offer one of our students an internship? Contact the Marc Pauly and Yorick Karseboom from the Philosophy Knowledge Centre.
