In this diverse interdisciplinary degree, you'll study momentous questions, from the value of religious faith, spirituality and wellbeing to the ethics of climate change or euthanasia. You'll develop a sophisticated understanding of the history of ideas and develop your own critical perspectives.
Sex and science, god and mind, logic and the value of life itself – acquire the tools and the ability you need to confidently engage with the biggest questions humanity has ever asked.
A degree in philosophy, religion, and ethics will allow you to explore topics ranging from the history of philosophy to profound questions about the meaning of a life worth living. You'll examine values and worldviews and delve into issues such as climate ethics, sustainability, bioethics, euthanasia, and the ethics of AI and robotics.
You'll study modules across all three subjects, each taught by expert researchers. There’s plenty of content to explore, and we advise you on the best way to structure your options.
In year three, you'll have the opportunity to prepare a range of media texts to communicate your views and write a dissertation, working closely with a member of academic staff to focus on an area that excites you.
As a graduate, you’ll come away with an understanding of radically different perspectives. You’ll be able to analyse and evaluate complex debates, and write and speak about ideas clearly, concisely and persuasively. You’ll be able to draw on your experience applying philosophical knowledge through critical analysis and/or community engagement.
