课程简介
卡迪夫大学文学学士学位有两个相关方面,在拉塞尔集团大学中脱颖而出。一个是在所提供的模块中特别强调道德,政治和美学。尽管我们的确涵盖了当代哲学的所有方面,但我们在这些领域提供了如此多的机会并不寻常。另一个是我们的研究和教学在西方哲学的“分析”和“大陆”两种风格中均等分布。由于历史原因,英国的大多数哲学课程几乎都是分析性的。有些几乎完全是欧陆式的。在这两种方法中,只有极少数人均匀地平衡着,使学生能够对两种方法都有全面的了解,并有可能在明智的选择下专注于一种方法或另一种方法。您计划的联系时间将有机会与学术人员举
How should you live your life and relate to others How should we organise society Who and what should you believe What is the nature of beauty How do your mind, brain, body and environment shape your thoughts and feelings How should characteristics like gender and race be taken into account in theoretical inquiry and social decision-making
Our BA Philosophy degree investigates important and complex issues like these and enables you to address today’s great global challenges. Our priority lies in developing your skills as a philosopher in your own right: you’ll be doing philosophy, not merely learning about philosophy. We’ll support you to engage critically and creatively with difficult problems in an open-minded and collaborative way, including on sensitive and controversial topics.
During your studies, you’ll have the opportunity to engage with cutting-edge research and work with your lecturers to develop insights into complex new areas of study. Our expertise covers a broad range of philosophical topics and traditions. You’ll develop a solid grounding in central areas of philosophy, such as ethics, epistemology, and philosophy of mind, but also study areas such as aesthetics, feminist philosophy, and phenomenology.
Many of our modules directly address contemporary problems facing society, providing you with a clear link between philosophical theory and practice. This is emphasised in the final year of the programme, where you’ll take part in a project to apply your own philosophical knowledge and ideas to develop policies or strategies aimed at solving a real-world ethical or social problem.
You’ll graduate with a range of professional skills, including collaboration, effective communication and critical thinking. You will also have developed a deeper appreciation of the ethical and social challenges that face contemporary society and industry and have both the ideas and the confidence required to solve them. From here, you’ll be ideally placed to progress into a range of exciting careers.
