Course Overview

You will be taught by a vibrant community of philosophers, pursuing original research on a wide range of topics on which expert supervision is available. This Philosophy of Religion and Ethics programme from University of Birmingham can also be used as a route into PhD research.

General Eligibility

You will need an upper second-class Honours degree, or equivalent, preferably in Philosophy, Theology or another relevant subject (e.g. Sociology, English).

If your undergraduate degree is in another subject, you are still very welcome to apply. We consider every application on its merits and we are happy to consider applicants with diverse academic backgrounds. Your level of academic achievement, letters of reference, and personal statement will all have strong influence on our decision. We may also require you to submit a writing sample.

We ask you to submit two academic references as part of your application, but if you have been out of academia for some time we will also accept a professional reference in addition to one academic reference.
