Bachelor of Arts - Philosophy

In the Philosophy major you will explore fundamental human questions. If you have ever been puzzled about why some actions are right and others are wrong, or about what makes belief in gravity more sensible than belief in Santa Claus, then you have already asked philosophical questions. Because big and complex questions often have more than one answer, you will be trained to think rationally, creatively and fairly about the problems that face human beings and the contemporary world. This makes the skills acquired in a Philosophy major broadly applicable. In the Philosophy major you can explore topics such as human freedom, the constitution of knowledge and values and god or how the modern scientific worldview emerged.
