The Doctoral Programme in Logic and Philosophy of Science is inter-university. The Universities of Salamanca, A Coruña, La Laguna, Santiago de Compostela, Valladolid and Valencia are participating. Its objective is to train Doctors in the different areas of the Area of Logic and Philosophy of Science and the Social Studies of Science and Technology. In its current form, the Interuniversity Program in Logic and Philosophy of Science was launched in the 2013-2014 academic year. But, in reality, it already has a long experience, as it was born from the confluence of the Master's Degree in Logic and Philosophy of Science and the Master's Degree in Social Studies of Science and Technology, both of which began as Postgraduate Degrees in the 2007-2008 academic year. It is distinguished from other, more generalist programmes by its clearly specialised nature. This makes it extraordinarily valued in the European and Latin American academic sphere. Its main virtue is the team of more than 50 high-level researchers that make it up, very outstanding from an academic point of view and also very dedicated to this exciting inter-university project with a clear objective: To train highly qualified researchers in Logic and Argumentation, Philosophy of Science, Philosophy of Language and Social Studies of Science and Technology, capable of responding to the growing social demands in this field.

The Area of Logic and Philosophy of Science stands out for its academic and research level, both in Spain and in Latin America. It has a very important group of researchers, both for their number and for the quality and quantity of the research they produce. A characteristic of this Area is the existence of links between researchers through various associations such as the Society of Logic and Philosophy of Science in Spain and the Society of Analytic Philosophy. The research projects in which the members of the Area participate, as well as the results of such research, have a high level of recognition and excellence. But, despite the quality of the research carried out in the Area of Logic and Philosophy of Science, until 2007 there was no Doctoral Programme capable of bringing together its members, a Programme that was at the same time specific to the area and broad enough to cover the wide variety of lines of research that the area covers. That was the reason that prompted us to launch this interuniversity Doctoral Programme. Most of the country's researchers participate in it, as well as some of the most renowned researchers from other European and Latin American countries. The Programme will soon be ten years old, to the full satisfaction of the professors and doctoral students who have graduated, according to quality surveys.
