What distinguishes law and justice? What is science allowed to do? What is the relationship between language and the world? Is there free will? These are examples of questions to which Philosophy seeks answers. In the Philosophy degree programme, you will systematically and historically examine questions of this kind and the answers that have been proposed to date. At Bielefeld, you will meet committed and interested teaching staff who research and teach intensively in a small department on a variety of different philosophical topics. Particular emphasis is placed on the practical aspects of philosophising, because Philosophy is definitely something that can be learnt. In addition to specialist knowledge in the narrower sense, you will acquire the ability to engage in argumentative debate, read and analyse philosophical texts, write and present your own philosophical papers and communicate complex and abstract problems in a generally understandable way.. These skills will qualify you for a wide range of professional fields, such as work in publishing, educational and cultural institutions, public relations and more.
