Philosophy MA

**4th in the UK for our research impact in Philosophy in REF 2021 (Times Higher Education)**<br/><br/>At Sussex, we encourage diverse approaches to philosophical thinking. Our Philosophy MA is interdisciplinary, allowing you to stretch your intellectual interests through our links with other departments including sociology, politics and history.<br/><br/>Our latest research underpins our teaching – you’ll study in an intellectually stimulating environment. You’ll enjoy flexibility in your choice of modules and specialisation, with innovative modules in both the analytic and continental traditions of philosophy. And in our weekly Philosophy Society, you’ll have the opportunity to hear leading thinkers speak about their research.<br/><br/>When you graduate, you’ll have philosophical skills that will be useful in your future career:<br/><br/><br/>- critical thinking and researching<br/><br/><br/>- analysing complex texts<br/><br/><br/>- producing rational arguments<br/><br/><br/>- writing in a philosophically compelling way<br/><br/><br/>- giving philosophical presentations and presenting your work in a professional manner.<br/><br/><br/>Many of our graduates go on to careers in journalism, teaching and marketing. A number of graduates have pursued further study and become philosophy academics.<br/><br/>We understand that deciding where and what to study is a very important decision. We’ll make all reasonable efforts to provide you with the courses, services and facilities described in this prospectus. However, if we need to make material changes, for example due to government or regulatory requirements, or unanticipated staff changes, we’ll let you know as soon as possible.
