Learning Outcomes

  • Identify and describe major categories in philosophy such as ethics, epistemology and philosophy of mind

  • Construct and analyse simple rational arguments using logical reasoning

  • Explain key philosophical problems (e.g., utilitarianism, the hard problem of consciousness) in age-appropriate terms
