About Us

Philosophia Munich is an interdisciplinary, student-run philosophy society, officially accredited at Technische Universität (TUM). It aims to foster discussions and awareness of core philosophical themes in Munich and is open to everyone, including non-students. The themes include ethics, epistemology, language, free will, and social & political philosophy among others. A common feature of the topics is their timeless nature; debates on some of these date back centuries.

We meet weekly to discuss - in most cases modern and impactful - philosophical works. Meetings usually take place at TUM main campus, Arcisstraße. You can find the exact schedule here. The discussions are designed to be academic and require commitment on part of the members; that is, you have to read the material that we discuss before our meetings. You can find more information about our meeting structure here. We also mix things up by including socialising events, such as film nights and hikes, and other academic events, such as guest speaker events.

We chose English as the language of discourse. Depending on the demand, we may arrange a German discussion group on site. Knowledge of academic philosophy is a plus but by no means a pre-requisite to becoming a member - everyone is welcome.

We are always open to new members - no matter if you are student or not; if you wish to join us or just attend a meeting to see what a typical discussion looks like, please fill out the form by clicking the button below.
