Program Overview

If you want to explore philosophical questions around right and wrong, truth and falsehood, the meaning of life, human beings, logic and language, or the nature of the universe, this research-based MRes will encourage you to think critically about the world around us, while developing skills in rigorous analysis, sound argument and persuasive communication.

The questioning nature of philosophy and its relevance to society today makes for interesting and sometimes controversial debate in class. Whether you're set on doing a PhD or have never studied philosophy before, this course will allow you to broaden your knowledge of philosophy, gaining a deeper understanding of key philosophical texts, as well as developing practical research skills and abilities through our dedicated research training.

From the outset, you will be paired with an experienced supervisor to support your personal and professional development, working together to refine your individual research, writing and communications skills, for example, preparing successful research proposals and grant applications.
