B.A. Philosophy with Year Abroad Full-time
Year: 2
2022/23 Session
To proceed to stage II.2 students must have an average mark of 55% for year one modules although it is possible to take in year two performance tutors’ reports, ECs etc.
Students choose 120 credits of modules from the list of options available.
The optional modules are divided into three categories that represent three core areas of philosophy: history of philosophy; ethics and social philosophy; epistemology, metaphysics, and philosophy of mind and language. These groupings are the following (please note: the specific modules listed are indicative, as provision may evolve to reflect, for example, staffing changes).
All Stage II BA Philosophy students are required to choose optional modules from AT LEAST TWO Groups:
You may choose 20 credits of Modules from another Department/School. (Note: the optional nature of this is not just a matter of students having a choice between modules from another Department/School; they have a choice also as to whether to take a module from another Department/School), This is subject to approval of the programme lead.
Students may also apply to undertake a Professional Skills module at level I. If successful this will be taken in place of 20 credits of taught modules. The credits to be dropped will be discussed with the programme convenor. The placement can be taken either during the summer vacation (part-time or full-time) or during semester 1 (part-time only). The placement must be completed prior to the Christmas vacation. Students undertaking a Professional Skills module at level I will not be able to undertake a Professional Skills module at level H.
