Course summary

MA Philosophy by Research is designed for students who are keen to undertake an in-depth research project on a subject of their choice in the field of philosophy, supported by the guidance of an academic supervisor. You are expected to write a dissertation of around 25,000 words that demonstrates expert knowledge and understanding of the subject area you have chosen. Students can benefit from the academic guidance of experts in a range of areas including metaphysics, philosophy of mind, ethics, philosophy of religion, and history of philosophy. This course is best-suited for students who have a tightly defined research project that is achievable within the time frame. Philosophy at Lincoln promotes the development of a stimulating research environment within which our postgraduate community plays a central role. Initiatives such as research seminars with internal speakers and visiting academics aim to foster cross-disciplinary debates and collaboration, as well as providing opportunities for career development.
