Integrated Masters - Master of Arts (Honours) - Philosophy and International Relations

Philosophy explores human existence using critical thinking and argument. We specialise in continental (European) philosophy and teach key texts from the European tradition. University of Dundee helps students look at how philosophy is important to real-world concerns and contemporary issues by: exploring films and artwork in lectures discussing important scientific and technological developments debating controversial ethical issues looking at how texts written 300 years ago can be relevant to political situations today At Levels 1 and 2 students will receive a grounding in ancient and modern philosophy and be introduced to fundamental ideas concerning ethics, epistemology (the nature of knowledge) and metaphysics (the nature of reality).
