Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Philosophy, Ethics and Religion (Placement Year)

Bangor University

Studying Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in Philosophy, Ethics and Religion (Placement Year) offers students the opportunity to engage with the fundamental questions of life. The course draws together modules that explore ethics, analytical and continental philosophy, and Eastern and Western religions.

All of the modules are taught by experts in fields of Philosophy, Ethics and Religion, specialising in areas such as religious extremism, existentialism, applied ethics, aesthetics, Holocaust studies and the study of the world religions. Each year students will be able to choose from a wide range of courses and with no compulsory modules in their first and second year they will be able to tailor their degree to their own interests. In their final year of study, they will again be able to choose most of their modules but will also be required to complete an independent project which will give them the opportunity to research a topic of their choosing at an advanced level.
