The philosophy programs are designed in such a way as to provide the student with an adequate knowledge of the essential themes and the main forms of philosophical questioning. Based on the achievements of its history, philosophy makes it possible to develop an integrated conception of human culture, at the same time as it trains in methods of analysis and critical reflection.


The objectives of the program are five-fold: to allow the student to complete his academic training; demonstrate that the student is capable of producing a work that makes an original contribution to the discipline; provide training to teach philosophy at university level; train professional consultants in strategic areas (ethics, politics, communication); train high-level researchers.
