The Phenomenology Center Award for Graduate Research will be announced at the end of the GSRS.
Award winning posters will be made available publicly available through Duquesne’s Institutional Repository, Duquesne Scholarship Collection.
The Simon Silverman Phenomenology Center (SSPC) Award for Graduate Research recognizes excellence in phenomenological research.
Outstanding projects in any field of study that employ a phenomenological approach—which can be realist, transcendental, existential, hermeneutic—either to articulate the essential structure of a specific lived experience or to interpret a concept or problem in a phenomenological figure or topic will be considered.
Projects involving the intersection of phenomenology and pedagogy or phenomenology and clinical practice are also welcome.
Some weight will be given to projects that show the use of SSPC’s special collection and/or archival materials.
Phenomenology Center Award for Graduate Research - $250
Honorable Mention - $100
