Annual Dr. Brian M. Keenan Prize

The Dr. Brian M. Keenan Prize is a national scholarship that seeks to honour Dr. Brian Keenan's commitment to philosophical education and to motivate and support post-secondary philosophic inquiry. The Brian M. Keenan Prize is presented on the merit of an undergraduate paper of at least two-thousand and not more than five-thousand words, on the philosophy of history, law, or social and political philosophy. Special consideration is given to papers engaging with liberalism as a set of historical practices or conditions.

The award is limited to students who are attending or have recently attended Canadian universities in undergraduate programs. Every year, papers are accepted from February 1st through May 31st. All applicants must be enrolled in, or graduated from a Canadian undergraduate program at the time of submission in order to be considered.
