Studying undergraduate Philosophy at the University of Birmingham will give students access to world-class talent in fields as diverse as Metaphysics, Philosophy of Psychiatry, Epistemology, Ethics, Philosophy of Religion, and the Philosophy of Mind.  

Students will meet the great minds of history and the present day on equal terms, not just learning what they thought, but engaging with them critically. In the first year of the degree, students will focus on the fundamentals of western philosophy, including its history and contemporary concerns. In the second and final year, students will have the opportunity to tailor the degree course so that they can focus on the areas of Philosophy that interest them most.
