Advanced Topics
Once you have finished sections I–IV, the remaining sections are optional specialization tracks. They explore particular directions or applications of epistemological thinking. You do not need to do all of them.
The specialization tracks are:
- V. Probability and Formal Reasoning
- VI. Social and Applied Epistemology
- VII. Epistemology of Science
- VIII. Advanced and Interdisciplinary Epistemology
Pick based on your interests and goals after finishing the core:
- Choose Probability and Formal Reasoning if you enjoy mathematics, logic, precise modeling, or want to understand how probability and evidence work in detail.
- Choose Social and Applied Epistemology if you are interested in how knowledge works in groups, institutions, online environments, politics, trust, misinformation, or questions of fairness and injustice.
- Choose Epistemology of Science if you want to understand how scientific knowledge is produced, justified, and distinguished from non-science.
- Choose Advanced and Interdisciplinary Epistemology if you are curious about connections between epistemology and artificial intelligence, decision-making under uncertainty, or highly technical/formal approaches.
