What the college says

The ideal student for Philosophy and Ethics has a passion for moral issues and seeks answers to the big questions such as whether God exists. They should be confident when expressing their own opinions but also able to look at opposing and differing views to their own. The course is based on extended writing therefore you should be able to formulate essays and enjoy independent research outside of class to further your knowledge. Philosophy and ethics contains many challenging questions and concepts, therefore you need to be resilient and hardworking. Finally you should be able to evaluate different ideas and theories, this often involves independent thinking and being able to weight up the strengths and weaknesses for yourself.
