The Institute of Philosophy in Chinese Academy of Sciences (CASIP) was
established to meet the urgent need in China to develop foundational,
philosophical, and ethical research on science and technology. In the
midst of rapid advances in science and technology, China needs to promote
and invest in humanities that are relevant and fully international. As a
full capacity international institution of research and postgraduate
education in philosophy, CASIP emphasizes interdisciplinary research
between philosophy and science. CASIP aims to foster collaborative
research projects between philosophy and science and promote innovative
projects of foundational research in basic sciences and on philosophical,
social, and ethical issues in cutting-edge, interdisciplinary scientific
research/areas. CASIP will be initially housed in the University of
Chinese Academy of Sciences (UCAS). CASIP will develop into a full-fledged
institute of philosophy in Chinese Academy of Sciences that covers all
aspects of research and postgraduate education in the intersection between
philosophy and science.
CASIP comprises five centers: the Center for Logic and Philosophy of
Mathematics, the Center for Philosophy of Physical Sciences, the Center
for Philosophy of Biological Sciences, the Center for Philosophy of
Intelligence and Cognitive Science, and the Center for Science and Values.
The University of Chinese Academy of Sciences is a major university in
Chinese higher education. It has four campuses in the Beijing area, three
located within the city of Beijing and one in the suburb by the beautiful
