Philosophy

In the programme option of Philosophy, you have the possibility to study a wide range of philosophical topics in one of the largest and most international philosophical communities in the Nordic countries. Philosophy Philosophy is one of our oldest academic subjects. But in a complex reality and a pluralistic society, the subject remains as relevant as ever before. By studying philosophy, you can take a deep dive into questions such as: Are there objective truths and values? Is democracy the best form of government? What is required for someone to be responsible for their actions? What bestows on language its meaning? In the programme option Philosophy, you will learn about these and other philosophical questions in one of the largest and most international philosophical communities in the Nordic countries. Internationally renowned teaching and research The Master's program in Philosophy offers teaching and supervision at a high international level within a broad spectrum of philosophy's main areas and traditions.

Work on the master's thesis is independent and is followed up by a supervisor. You can choose between two tracks: one with a 60-credit master's thesis and one with a 30-credit master's thesis. In line with the program's optional course packages, you can follow and get involved in research groups such as: The Society for Ancient Philosophy , the Practical Philosophy Group , the Center for Philosophy and the Sciences (CPS) and the Oslo Mind, Language and Epistemology Network (OMLET) . → Read more about the programme structure .

Valuable skills Through the study of philosophy, you are trained in skills that are valuable both in working life and in further education. Intellectual creativity and independence: you are trained to see problems from new angles and to solve problems independently. The history of philosophy is an important source of inspiration here. Critical thinking and analysis: you learn to analyze texts and arguments, as well as to build arguments and write argumentative texts yourself. Normative thinking: philosophy shows that normative argumentation can be something far more than an "opinion". No other subject provides such broad and thorough training in argumentation about justice, democracy, values, right and wrong, and what is a good life. Rational discussion across great disagreement: in philosophy you learn to deal critically but constructively in debates with great disagreement. What premises can the disagreement be traced back to? What else can be agreed on? To what extent is pluralism a possibility? International possibilities The programme option Philosophy gives students the opportunity to spend a semester studying abroad. The Department has exchange agreements with a number of strong universities in Europe and North America, including vibrant communities of philosophy. → Read more about studies abroad.
