Integrated Masters - Master of Arts (Honours) - Philosophy and Psychology

In this University of Dundee course, students will be encouraged to make links between philosophy and psychology. They specialize in continental (European) philosophy and teach key texts from the European tradition.

University of Dundee helps students look at how philosophy is important to real-world concerns and contemporary issues by, exploring films and artwork, discussing important scientific and technological developments, debating controversial ethical issues, and looking at how texts written 300 years ago can be relevant to political situations today

Students will receive a grounding in ancient and modern philosophy and be introduced to fundamental ideas concerning ethics, epistemology (the nature of knowledge) and metaphysics (the nature of reality), before specializing in areas that suit their own interests.

Psychology is the scientific study of the mind and behaviour. Topics Dundee covers include how babies learn, the way in which people's mental skills change as they grow older, various personalities and how social group dynamics work. Students will also study different psychological disorders.
