Bachelor of Arts [B.A] [Philosophy] From Oxford Brookes University

has a rich history, and we offer modules exploring the work of Plato and Aristotle, the Hellenistic Philosophers, Medieval Philosophy, Descartes and Hume and Kant. Alongside the history of philosophy you will also explore the philosophy of language, philosophy of science, philosophy of religion, philosophy of mind, ethics and metaphysics.

The Philosophy program offered by the Oxford Brookes University approaches this domain from a western, analytical perspective, but we also offer modules that look at eastern philosophy and issues around continental philosophy. We also offer teaching on experimental philosophy, an emerging field of philosophical inquiry that tests philosophical theories through observation and experience, rather than theory or pure logic.
