Course summary

**Course overview**- Explore the deep questions that shape society and our existence as we know it. Philosophy - which literally means the ‘love of wisdom’ – is the original academic subject. It started 2,500 years ago in Plato’s academy and remains as relevant today as it ever was.- What constitutes a good life? Is there a God? Can military force ever be justified? Ask deep enough questions and you’ll find that your enquiry soon becomes a philosophical one.- In this truly fascinating course you’ll interrogate what it means to be human and develop the personal and intellectual skills you need for any career that involves thinking, talking or writing about your ideas.- Join us on a journey through traditional ideas of theoretical philosophy, including metaphysics, epistemology, moral theory, and the philosophy of mind and language. We’ll also delve into modern European philosophy and applied ethics.**Why study with us**- Bachelor of Arts with Honours in Philosophy is ranked 2nd in the UK for student satisfaction (Complete University Guide 2021).- You’ll be learning from academic staff who are active researchers, working in fields such as bioethics, professional ethics, philosophy of mind and mental health. Their work feeds directly into the course which helps to make the content unique and stimulating.- Undertake work placements in a wide range of community groups and voluntary organisations through the University’s Centre for Volunteering and Community Leadership (CVCL).
