Bachelor of Politics, Philosophy and Economics in Philosophy

Program Overview

Think strategically and make change with the Bachelor of Politics, Philosophy and Economics. This elite program is designed for deep thinkers who want to have a real impact. By studying at the creative intersection between three disciplines, you’ll learn how to transform big ideas into tangible results.

 

Specialisation: Philosophy
Philosophy is the study of fundamental ideas about the world we live in. It questions the nature of our world, asks what would constitute a good life in such a world, and asks what could be done to make it better. In this specialisation you will be introduced to areas central to philosophy including:

  • Political philosophy - the principles that underlie the structure of a just and stable society. For instance, how should society's limited resources be fairly distributed?
  • Metaphysics - the study of what sorts of things exist in the world, and how they are related. For instance, whether there is a mind or soul, and whether value and beauty are objective properties of things?
  • Epistemology - the study of what constitutes knowledge of the world, and of what methods can be used to obtain it. For instance, what is special about scientific methods for acquiring knowledge?
  • Ethics - what is the nature of the good and the right? For instance, how may value judgements be justified?
  • Philosophy of language - the notions of meaning, truth and linguistic understanding. For instance, how is the meaning of what we say connected to our intentions?
  • Philosophy of mind - the relationship between consciousness and physical reality. For instance, how can self and subjective experience arise in the firings of neurons in the brain?
  • Logic - the theory of reasoning. For instance, what makes for a good argument or inference?
