About Us


Prometheus is an undergraduate philosophy club and journal published by undergraduate students at Johns Hopkins University. Every April, Prometheus hosts the Mid-Atlantic Undergraduate Philosophy Conference, where undergraduates present on their own work. Prometheus also publishes an online undergraduate philosophy journal every year.  Each issue contains a selection of essays on various philosophic topics submitted by undergraduates from around the world selected by the club. We accept submissions every winter and publish the journal in the summer.

Join Us in Prometheus At Hopkins


If you are a Hopkins student and love philosophy, get involved with Prometheus by joining our undergraduate society! Prometheus, in addition to being our undergraduate philosophy club and journal, is also a one-credit class that can be taken in the philosophy department.

The class is open to anyone who is interested in philosophy and has taken a philosophy class before. It is a great way to engage with students of the same interest and get to know the philosophy department at Hopkins better.

Submit Your Research

Visit our submissions portal to find guidelines to submit your own research to the journal for publication. We accept papers written on a wide variety of philosophical subjects. If you aren’t sure if Prometheus would be a good fit, email us!
