MA in Logic and Theory of Science
The Logic and Theory of Science MA is a two-year master's program in
English at Eotvos Lorand University Budapest (ELTE). The program is open
to students from all over the world with a BA or BSc degree in
philosophy, mathematics, physics, computer science, linguistics, social
science, and all related fields.
The curriculum includes core courses in logic and formal approaches to
philosophy of science, and advanced optional courses in logic,
philosophy of mathematics, foundations of physics, logical methods in
linguistics, philosophy of language, metaphysics, and formal models in
social sciences. Students can choose a focus according to their own
fields of interests. In general, the program is research oriented,
aiming to prepare students for a PhD program.
The program is administered by the Department of Logic in the Institute
of Philosophy at Eotvos Lorand University Budapest, in cooperation with
other departments and research institutes in Budapest, especially with
the Algebraic Logic Group of Renyi Institute of Mathematics.
The department organizes and hosts two weekly colloquia: the Logic and
Philosophy of Mathematics seminar and the Theoretical Philosophy Forum.
Our MA and PhD students regularly and actively participate in these
events.
The faculty includes:
Hajnal Andreka (Renyi Institute of Mathematics)
Zalan Gyenis (Renyi Institute of Mathematics)
Gabor Hofer-Szabo (Research Institute of Philosophy)
Laszlo Kalman (Research Institute for Linguistics)
Andras Mate (Department of Logic, ELTE)

Heraclitean Time (Beyond Presentism and Growing Blocks)
Tuesday, 20. January 2015, 5.30 PM, Zrinyi 14, Room 412
ABSTRACT
I describe a metaphysical conception of physical reality, which I call the Flux-first view, which treats change, or flux, as fundamental rather than being: states of affairs, objects/events in spacetime. The core theses are that (i) change is prior to time and (ii) change is prior to states of affairs-states are derivative from prior process. The essence of the approach is the fundamental role of properties is not to be things possessed or instantiated, the orthodox view, but to be aspects of change. This is captured in the idea that the fundamental units of concrete reality are what I call 'fluxions': dynamic 'bundles' of properties or forms. As such, Flux-first is a kind of dynamic structuralism--not the familiar 4-dimensionalist (static) structuralism. The view of time in Flux-first is not Presentism or Growing block (or moving spotlight). It's certainly not the 4-dimensional, block universe view. Call it 'Heraclitean

UNIVERSAL LOGIC SCHOOL, ISTANBUL, June 20-24, 2015
http://www.uni-log.org/ULS5
An amazing school of logic with 30 tutorials
given by scholars from all over the world
divided in three groups:
1) HISTORY OF LOGIC
Aristotle, Boethius, Leibniz, Kant, Hegel, Boole, Husserl, Jain Logic, ...
2) LOGIC AND X - Relations/Applications of logic with/to other fields:
Logic and Music, Logic and Politics, Logic and the Theory of Relativity,
Logic and Colours, Logic and Fiction, ...
3) LOGIC THEOREMS - Presentation of the most important theorems of modern
logic:
Completeness, Incompleteness, Compactness, Cut-elimination, Lindström and
more ...
The school is sponsored by the Association for Symolic Logic
ASL student travel awards are available.
Before this school in Istanbul (a city full of history previoulsy known as
Constantinople and Byzantium)
there will be the 10th Panhellenic Logic Symposium June 11-15 in Samos
Island where Pythagoras was born.
https://samosweb.aegean.gr/pls10/
A travel by bus from the nearby port of Kusadasi in Turkey up to Istanbul
will be organized with stops on famous historical sites: Ephesus, Troy,
etc. Special arrangements will exist for participants who wish to attend
both conferences.
The school in Istanbul will be followed June 25-30 by the 5th World
Congress on Universal Logic
that will also take place in Istanbul
including 15 invited speakers, 15 workshops, a secret speaker and
the contest The Future of Logic

Reminder:
The CEU Department of Cognitive Science cordially invites you to its
first talk of 2015 (as part of its Departmental Colloquium series)
by
Patrick Haggard (UCL)
Date: Wednesday, January 14, 2014 - 17:00-18:30
Location: Department of Cognitive Science, CEU, Frankel Leó út 30-34.,
Room G15
Voluntary action and social responsibility
Abstract:
Our social culture provides a dualist concept of action: it assumes
that the conscious mind decides on our actions, that we could therefore
have chosen alternative actions to those we did choose, and that we are
therefore responsible for what we have done. This talk will examine two
key questions about voluntary action from a neuroscientific point of
view. First, I will discuss how the brain's capacity for voluntary
action is related to conscious awareness. I will show that conscious
experience is a product of brain activity that precedes action, and not
a cause of it. In the second part of the talk, I will consider how a
mechanistic, neuroscientific account of voluntary action might relate to
the essential social concept of individual responsibility.
