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 on this truly fascinating academic programme. Join us on a journey through traditional areas of theoretical philosophy, including metaphysics, epistemology, moral theory, and the philosophy of mind and language, as well as modern European philosophy and applied ethics. Our academics are all active researchers, and their work in areas such as bioethics, professional ethics, philosophy of mind and mental health, and philosophy and popular culture feeds directly into the modules they teach.Philosophers have a longstanding and uniquely-focused interest in these questions, and this makes philosophy the higher education subject par excellence. Such questions challenge us to learn how to really think. Addressing them requires an approach that differs from the approaches of the natural and social sciences: not observation and experiment, but the analysis of concepts, and the exercise of autonomous reason. The study of philosophy also helps to develop more general transferable skills - such as the ability to construct analytically well-honed arguments, to express ourselves unambiguously, and to defend our views rigorously.<br><br>You'll have an opportunity to build a work placement into your studies, via modules offered through our Centre for Volunteering and Community Leadership. These modules offer placements with a wide range of community groups and voluntary organisations in areas such as music and the arts, environment and conservation, crime prevention, health and social welfare, sports, youth work, culture and heritage, ICT, PR and fundraising.You will take 18 modules, at the rate of 6 per year (full-time) or up to 4 per year (part-time). Optional modules may be taken alongside an 'elective' module, to make up the yearly quota of 6. Elective modules offer a choice from a wide range of modules offered across the university, and may for example include a language module, a work placement, or a careers or employability module. Modules are reviewed annually and may therefore vary, in content or availability, from those listed above.
