Course summary
Philosophy enables you to explore big questions: What is the nature of the mind? Is it possible for us to know about the external world? Do we have the power to act freely? By choosing our Philosophy degree, you learn to critically analyse arguments and clearly articulate ideas. These skills are transferable to many careers and job roles. Our single honours Philosophy course offers a broad range of modules as well as the freedom to choose your own path through the subject. You will learn how to think carefully and critically about a variety of philosophical questions. Topics you may study include:
- What does it mean to know something, and what can we know?
- What does leading a good life consist in?
- Is the mind identical to the brain?
- Should we impose limits on human enhancement?
