It questions the nature of our world, asks what would constitute a good life in such a world, and asks what could be done to make it better. You will be introduced to areas central to philosophy including: Metaphysics - the study of what sorts of things exist in the world, and how they are related: for instance, whether there is a mind or soul and if so, how it is related to the body., Epistemology - the study of what constitutes knowledge of the world, and of what methods can be used to obtain it., Ethics and aesthetics - what is the nature of the good and the beautiful, and how may such value judgements be justified., Political philosophy - the principles that underlie the structure of a just society., Philosophy of language - the notions of meaning, truth and linguistic understanding., Philosophy of mind - the relationship between consciousness and physical reality and Logic - the theory of reasoning. Logicians study what makes for a good argument or inference, and try to identify underlying structural features of argumentation. The philosophy major includes a wide range of electives, covering all of the above areas. Philosophy provides skills in reasoning and argument that are applicable in a wide variety of professions, as well as the opportunity to engage in a reflective appraisal of our place in the universe.
