In this course you’ll learn how to become a systematic, skilled thinker and communicator by studying the history of human thought and ideas.
Philosophy is the foundation of all other disciplines. It focuses on the very scope and limits of human understanding and deals with the most fundamental knowledge of the world and ourselves.
All systematic enquiry is ultimately grounded in philosophy. It’s the art of clear thinking, the ability to address the most fundamental questions in life and an understanding of how to revise our conceptual frameworks in order to elicit change in the world, which sets up you as a philosophy student to become a competent thinker, leader, and innovator who makes a real impact. The Philosophy course at Murdoch introduces students to the major strands of philosophical thought as well as offering three special focus areas: ethics and political philosophy, 20th century European philosophy, and history of metaphysics.
