Spring 2023:

Mandatory course for all PhD candidates at USN 

Theory of Science and Research Ethics (5 ECTs)

This course addresses advanced questions concerning the theory of science and research ethics. Based on a selection of topics set out in the course plan, candidates will acquire insight into key and contemporary understandings of how science is being thought of and practised in a variety of fields (Theory of Science), combined with thoughts related to scientific research (Research Ethics). The course will enable participants to focus on relevant questions in chosen academic fields and research traditions, and on research that crosses disciplinary boundaries. 

The following book will be used as a key reference during the course, and will be supplemented by a series of articles etc. (specified in the course plan):

Peter Godfrey-Smith, 2021. Theory and Reality: An Introduction to the Philosophy of Science, University of Chicago Press, Second Edition. 

In addition, all candidates must become familiar with their disciplinary ethical guidelines, which can be accessed via the following link: https://www.forskningsetikk.no/en/guidelines/

The course will be held at Eidene, Tjøme from: 13 to 17 March 2023.
