What the college says

Philosophy and Ethics (also known as Religious Studies) is an ancient subject that looks at some of the fundamental questions about life. Philosophy of religion starts with a study of the Ancient Greek thinking about the nature of existence, through the middle ages to modern arguments for and against the existence of God. Ethics (Moral Philosophy) considers a range of approaches to ethical reasoning and applies these theories to a range of practical situations. Always relevant, the subject develops reasoning skills and will support and enhance evaluative writing.
