Course summary

Immerse yourself in a world of philosophical debates, problems and theories through this dynamic degree. Taught in the heart of London, home to one of the most varied philosophical communities in the world, the Philosophy MA will teach you a raft of transferable skills for academic or professional careers. You’ll learn from UCL’s renowned scholars and celebrated guest speakers, and become part of a lively intellectual community. The programme allows students to develop an advanced knowledge of problems in contemporary analytic philosophy, the history of philosophy and the study of value. It provides students with an understanding of a representative range of central philosophical debates and of the nature of philosophical problems, and encourages them to develop and defend their own viewpoint.The MA offers philosophy graduates a means to study philosophy for an additional year, and offers graduates from other disciplines a rigorous advanced start in the discipline. The degree will form a good basis for work outside of universities. Philosophy graduates who aim to develop a career in academic philosophy should apply for the MPhil.Stud., which is the route to the PhD at UCL
