Program Summary

Philosophy as a course explores fundamental questions about existence, knowledge, morality, and human nature. It encourages critical thinking, logical reasoning, and the ability to analyze complex ideas. Students engage with historical and contemporary philosophical texts, examining the thoughts of influential philosophers and the evolution of philosophical ideas. The course often covers areas such as metaphysics, which deals with the nature of reality; epistemology, which investigates the nature and limits of knowledge; ethics, which examines moral principles and human conduct; and logic, which focuses on principles of valid reasoning and argumentation. Through discussions, debates, and written analyses, students learn to construct well-reasoned arguments and evaluate different perspectives. The study of philosophy fosters intellectual curiosity, enhances problem-solving skills, and provides a deeper understanding of human beliefs, values, and the structure of thought itself.
