Course summary

This course combines philosophy with the study of French, providing a valuable skill set ideally tailored to the increasingly globalised workplace.In philosophy you will study units covering introduction to philosophy, logic, and realism and normativity. In your first year you will gain a grounding in the fundamentals of philosophy through two mandatory introductory units: one exploring issues in epistemology and metaphysics and the other concerning moral and political philosophy. You will also take a unit exploring critical thinking and logic.In year two you complete your foundation in philosophy with a mandatory unit on realism and normativity and conduct more detailed study in topics ranging from ethics to the philosophy of language.In the final year you may undertake an independent study unit on almost any topic in philosophy, writing an extended essay in consultation with a supervisor. Final-year taught units relate to the research interests of staff in areas ranging from global justice to philosophy of physics.For French, you will study language and culture units, with options ranging from medieval literature to contemporary cinema. You will spend your third year studying or working abroad in a French-speaking environment.

This course combination offers an enriching experience with exciting intellectual challenges.
