Course summary
At Sussex, we encourage diverse approaches to philosophical thinking. Our Philosophy MA is interdisciplinary, allowing you to stretch your intellectual interests through our links with other departments including sociology, politics and history. Our latest research underpins our teaching – you’ll study in an intellectually stimulating environment. You’ll enjoy flexibility in your choice of modules and specialisation, with innovative modules in both the analytic and continental traditions of philosophy. And in our weekly Philosophy Society, you’ll have the opportunity to hear leading thinkers speak about their research. When you graduate, you’ll have philosophical skills that will be useful in your future career:
- critical thinking and researching

- producing rational arguments
- writing in a philosophically compelling way
- giving philosophical presentations and presenting your work in a professional manner.
