Program
The School of
Materialist Research offers
Integrated
Credit
Program
(ICP) each Fall and
Spring Semester. ICPs are taught by world-recognized scholars and
practitioners of materialist research and are intended
for graduate students, post-docs, early-career faculty, and curious
members of the wider public. Courses take place online several times a
semester and are designed and maintained by the professor, in
consultation with SMR leadership. While ICPs are taught outside
the formal university system, they’re shaped with the aim of
supplementing university course work and, in certain instances, can
count for university credit. Please consult Receiving Credit to see if you’re eligible.
NB: An important new aspect of this program is that the successful completion of a certificate course program qualifies you for a significant discount at the SRM Summer Schools held on our campus in Greece (Olympiada, ancient Stagira).

Intensive Study Courses
Open Seminars
The School of Materialist Research hosts seminars on original content
engaging materialist thought and practice across the humanities, arts,
and sciences. Topics covered in the seminars range from contemporary
philosophical, political, and scientific materialisms,
and the various ecological, aesthetic, and feminist materialisms that
have sprung up in the last few decades, to the material challenges and
possibilities confronting engineering and design on a planetary scale
(through the distributed practices of computing,
finance, urbanization, etc.), especially the host of geopolitical,
racial, and ecological asymmetries that emerge in their wake. The
seminars therefore embrace a full range of methodologies—philosophical,
artistic, empirical, ethnographic, etc.—and offer a
platform for showcasing research and experimentation on the many
complexities of materialist thought and practice today.
Seminars are free of charge, online, and open to the public. They are
clustered according to thematic areas and are offered in the fall,
spring, and summer.
You can
also find all of our past seminars for free on our Youtube channel here. As well as find a full itemized list with direct links to all past seminars here.
