BA (Hons) Philosophy

Course Overview

Studying philosophy at Hull means doing philosophy: engaging with current issues and emerging philosophical challenges. That will help you to build and use the skills and methods that only training in philosophy can provide.

You'll grapple with fundamental questions about the nature of reality, consciousness, and what it is to be human. You'll debate the issues of the day, from cutting-edge genetics to artificial intelligence that will equip you to shape your future and the world around you.

And you can get involved with Peer-Assisted Study Sessions (PASS), where our philosophy students hand down their enthusiasm and wisdom from one year group to the next.
