Engage with the world’s greatest thinkers to confront life’s fundamental questions. By combining creative imagination with rigorous reasoning, you will master critical thinking. From classical roots to the cutting edge, this course empowers you to build your own arguments and ask big questions.

Interrogate the core assumptions on which society is built, the nature of reality and thought, and our relation to the world and each other, and in doing so build intellectual skills that you’ll draw on in your career and for the rest of your life.

Thinking philosophically requires a distinctive mix of imagination and exact reasoning. You'll develop this along with analytical skills and a high degree of intellectual flexibility.

By studying thinkers from many traditions and engaging with different approaches within philosophy – pragmatism, Chinese philosophy, feminist philosophy, phenomenology, decolonial perspectives – you’ll engage with a wide variety of philosophical areas, identify links between different disciplines and forge your own ideas. 

Within the degree structure you’ll be able to choose from modules that address topics as varied as the nature of the mind and the value of art, based on your interests, with opportunities for individual projects and work placements.
