Philosophy examines the human condition through analytical reasoning and debate. If you often ponder life's profound mysteries and inquiries, philosophy might be your calling.
We focus on continental (European) philosophical traditions, guiding students through seminal works from this intellectual heritage. The program also promotes interdisciplinary study, allowing you to combine philosophy with European-focused modules in history, languages, international relations, politics, or geography.
Our approach demonstrates philosophy's relevance to modern challenges by:
analyzing cinematic and artistic expressions
examining groundbreaking scientific and technological advances
engaging in ethical dilemmas
connecting centuries-old philosophical texts to current political contexts
During the first two levels, you'll build foundations in both classical and contemporary philosophy while exploring core concepts in ethics, epistemology (the study of knowledge), and metaphysics (the nature of existence).
