Philosophy at Liverpool combines research excellence in core areas of philosophy with innovative work at the frontiers of the discipline, from political philosophy, spirituality and ancient Chinese philosophy to speculative futures, neo-Platonism and feminism.
Our wide-ranging interests are reflected in our teaching. During your degree, you will learn core topics, such as metaphysics, philosophy of mind, political philosophy, and philosophy of religion. We also pride ourselves on innovative approaches to philosophy, including philosophy of the future, philosophy of games, and social epistemology.
