Course summary
This program encourages graduate students to undertake cross-disciplinary studies whenever courses in other departments and programs bear on their research. The Department has curricular ties of one kind or another to several departments and cross-disciplinary programs. A variety of topics in applied ethics can better be understood if the theoretical approaches and empirical results of other disciplines are taken into account. Students working in environmental ethics might benefit from studying related issues in courses in environmental policy, for example. Students in medical ethics might want to take courses in public health. Courses in Women's Studies are relevant to work in many areas of moral philosophy.

The courses are:History of Ancient Philosophy, Wittgenstein and His Influence, Fundamentals of Medical Ethics, Philosophy of Language, Philosophy of Law, Political Legitimacy, Vindicating Explanatory Reductions, Free Will and Moral Responsibility, Desert and Distributive Justice, Control and Self Control, Decision Theory: Foundations and Applications, Rational Choice Theory, Theory of Knowledge.
