Student Union Representatives

Emily Williamson

Before beginning my PhD at CEU, I completed my undergraduate degree in Philosophy and Linguistics at the University of Edinburgh and my MA in Philosophy at the University of Salzburg.  My MA thesis was a defense of propositional literary cognitivism, by means of arguing that some works of fictional literature are thought experiments.  I am most interested in the intersection of aesthetics and epistemology and, more broadly, in metaphilosophy and questions concerning the limitations of different fields.  As the PhD representative, I want to communicate our values and concerns to the university.  Please feel free to get in touch about any issues or ideas.

Ayda Uzel

Hello! I am a second-year student in the 2-year MA program. I graduated from Bogazici University and started my MA right after. My main areas of interest are continental philosophy, political philosophy, ethics, and feminism. I am here to be the students' voice: specifically, to raise student issues and concerns. So basically, I am here for you! Please feel free to contact me to contribute and create a better study environment!

Noah Mihelić Landay 

I am a Croatian American 1-year MA student and my interest in philosophy began at Swarthmore College in the USA. After I received my BA with majors in Political Science and Philosophy of Language in 2019, I went to work as a criminal defense investigator in New York City. My main interests are language, law, and ethics. I am here to help in any way I can!

Lilian Lehmann

Hi all, I am Lilian, a first-year student in the 2-year MA program. I have a background in Computer Science and Political Economy, and since I already have a few years of work experience, I am one of the older students in the program :) I am very happy to be at CEU now studying philsophy and representing my fellow classmates. Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any concerns or ideas!
