I am an Associate Professor/Universitetslektor in Philosophy at Umeå University. Prior to that held postdoctoral positions at University of Leeds and Oslo University. I completed my PhD at the University of St Andrews (2011-2015), where I was affiliated with the Arché Philosophical Research Centre. I was supervised by Herman Cappelen, and my examiners were Lizzie Fricker and Patrick Greenough. Before that I completed my BA and MA in philosophy at the University of Leeds.
I work primarily in the philosophy of language and epistemology. But I also have interests in ethics/value theory, the philosophy of action and... well... pretty much all of the rest of philosophy as well. You can contact me at andrewpeet123 at Gmail dot com. When I am not doing philosophy I like to spend time with my wife Lizzie and my son Oliver. I also enjoy rock climbing. |
