哲学学士（荣誉）

哲学是对现实（包括我们自己）最普遍和最基本特征的研究，是对我们对现实的了解和信仰，这些都体现在我们的概念，理论和实践中。尽管我们将向您解释这些问题的一些现有答案，以及为什么人们认为这些答案正确的原因，但我们的重点是学习如何批判性地评估这些论点以及发展和为自己的答案辩护。在学习过程中，您将开发出非常有用的技能：如何提出有效而严谨的论点，如何对他人的论点和观点提出批评，如何清晰简洁地解释困难的材料以及如何处理大多数情况下的事实。人生中最重要的问题（实际上是一些次要的问题），理智的人可以相信根本不同的事物。无论
Philosophy is the study of the most general and fundamental features of reality - including ourselves - and the knowledge and beliefs we have about that reality which are embodied in our concepts, theories and practices. The BA (Hons) in Philosophy course enables you to learn how to develop and justify your own answers to some of the most fundamental and important questions: Can I know that I'm not trapped inside The Matrix What makes something the morally right thing to do Do we have free will Does God exist Is the human mind just a lump of grey matter While we'll explain some of the existing answers to these questions, and the reasons why one might think those answers are correct, our focus is on learning how to critically assess these arguments and to develop and argue for your own answers. You will develop useful skills including: how to present an effective and rigorous argument, how to develop criticisms of other people's arguments and views, how to explain difficult material clearly and concisely, and how to deal with the fact that on most of the questions in life, reasonable people can believe radically different things. These skills are value for your career as well as in everyday life, whether you're deciding what to do, having an argument with a friend, or simply reading a newspaper.
