Philosophy and Ethics is an intellectually stimulating and challenging course, designed to explore the most fundamental questions of life. Involving lively discussions, critical analysis and in-depth essay writing, it is recognised as a highly academic subject complementing Humanities and Literature-based fields. The course is split in to three units including The Philosophy of Religion, Religion and Ethics and Theology. The first unit, Philosophy of Religion, focuses on the ancient philosophical influences of religion, including the nature of the soul, arguments about the existence or non-existence of God and the problem of evil. Religion and Ethics explores ethical language and thought, debates surrounding the idea of conscience and sexual ethics, and Theology delves in to the religious beliefs, values and teaching within the context of Christianity. Studying Philosophy and Ethics can make a significant contribution to any career that requires clear and rigorous thought, such as Law, Politics, Journalism and Education.
