This is a combined taught and a research degree in Philosophy, which will teach you how to successfully undertake research on philosophical topics of your interest. Apart from providing Master-level training in philosophy, the course also guides you practically to develop your research skills and abilities. The course can be taken as an excellent foundation for doctoral (Ph.D.) work, but also as part of personal or professional development. Modules are team-taught by various staff on the program, which will expose you to different views on the nature of philosophical inquiry and will give you access to expertise in all main areas of philosophy.
Students should have a good degree, 2:2 minimum, from an awarding UK institution, or its equivalent. It is not necessary to hold a degree in philosophy. For students who fall short of this requirement, relevant work experience, or evidence of experience in the field, can be considered as an alternative.
20 Hours of Work permit weekly for international students.
The minimum entry level is IELTS 6.5 with a minimum of 5.5 in each subtest, or equivalent English language test scores.
