  • Academic title
    MLitt Philosophy 1 (Conversion)
  • Course description
    MLitt: 12 months full-time; 24 months part-time

    This is a conversion programme for graduates whose first degree does not include a substantial component devoted to philosophy as practised in the analytical tradition. The programme provides an introduction to a broad range of core topics in analytic philosophy and prepares you for undertaking a research degree. In recent years it has been particularly successful, with many of our students going on subsequently to conduct successful doctoral research on a specific philosophical topic.

    Content

    You will take six taught courses and then write a dissertation under supervision. Introduction to analytic philosophy (1) and Introduction to analytic philosophy (2) are compulsory, and are taken in the first and second semesters respectively, while the remaining four courses are chosen from a wide range of options, including:

        * History of modern philosophy
