Course description

Studying philosophy allows you to think about some of the great philosophical questions in a clear, disciplined and systematic manner.

Philosophy:

* introduces you to the thinking of some of the great philosophers of the past and present

* illuminates the connections between diverse areas of human experience

* makes you more aware of the assumptions that form the basis of your beliefs

**Philosophy at Edinburgh**

As the historical home of David Hume and Adam Smith, the city of Edinburgh has long been, and remains, a fitting place to study philosophy.

The University too, has a strong historical connection to the subject, counting Adam Ferguson and Sir William Hamilton among its former students.
