Co-Editor-in-Chief of the British Journal for the Philosophy of Science


The BSPS invites expressions of interest regarding the appointment of a new Co-Editor-in-Chief for the British Journal for the Philosophy of Science, to join current Co-Editor-in-Chief Prof. Steven French. The new Co-Editor-in-Chief will succeed Prof. Michela Massimi, who has decided to step down at the end of two BJPS editorial mandates.



We hope to have the new editor in place by the beginning of 2017. In the first instance, interested parties should e-mail Assistant Editor Dr Elizabeth Hannon (bjps@leeds.ac.uk) who will give details of what is needed for a full proposal. Expressions of interest should be made prior to 1 October 2016.


Interested parties may also wish to talk with Prof. French, Prof. Massimi, Dr Hannon, or a member of the BSPS Committee if they have any questions about any aspect of the role.



The Society is committed to improving diversity within the field and welcomes applications from women and ethnic minority candidates.
