Filosofia, kandidaatti ja maisteri (3 v + 2 v)
University of Helsinki · Helsinki, Finland
About the programme
The aim of studies in philosophy is to familiarise the student with human thought and the knowledge concerning it, to provide systematic knowledge of philosophy as an independent discipline and of its special fields, and to train the student in philosophical analysis and argumentation. Philosophy delves into the most fundamental questions. What can we know, and how? What is the structure of reality?
