Philosophy has been at the core of Western intellectual life for at least 2,500 years. It is central to our understanding of the world and our interaction with it.
Philosophy gives you the skills to think about great philosophical questions in a clear and systematic way.
While there are different approaches that philosophers have taken, the study of philosophy focuses on:
- argument
- critical enquiry
- rigour in reasoning
- clarity of expression, including making important distinctions
Using techniques from modern linguistics, you will analyse the structure of written and spoken English and explore how the language has changed in the course of its history.
As well as the study of change in English, we have a strong tradition of investigating variations of the language, including:
- Scots
- distinct dialects of English
- international variations
You will study modern-day English and Scots and identify the similarities and differences between English and other languages.
