The final paper will be ~5,000 words (roughly 15 doublespaced pages) on a topic of your choice having to do with causation. You should discuss the topic with me first. As noted on the syllabus, the paper is due May 5, our final exam day. (There is no final exam.)
Select a topic early in the semester, and complete a literature review using Philosopher's Index, PhilPapers, and related sites, to identify key papers.
I encourage you to target a specific conference or journal, whether in philosophy, your home department, or your professional area.
This page will have more details as the semester progresses.
