Course summary

This wide-ranging joint honours degree allows you to study the full range of ideas, thinkers and approaches in philosophy, while gaining an understanding of the classical societies that laid the foundations of Western philosophical thought. You’ll explore the literature, culture, politics and history of ancient Greek and Roman societies through core modules, as well as discovering the key issues, concepts and ways of thinking in philosophy. You’ll explore fundamental concepts such as argument construction, moral and political philosophy, the history of modern philosophy, the nature of knowledge and reality, as well as applied philosophy in topics including bioethics, race, gender, and war. Because our research interests are so diverse, we can also offer a wide range of optional modules to focus on the topics and methods that interest you. From Plato and Socrates to the Latin novel, philosophy of science to aesthetics, Greek art and society to logic, this degree is a fantastic opportunity to study across disciplines, cultures and eras – all while gaining an impressively broad range of skills. There’s even the option to learn from scratch or continue with Ancient Greek or Latin throughout your degree.
