Philosophy

I wanted the opportunity to reflect on topics I would not have thought about on my own, and to encounter questions I would not have otherwise been aware of. This course exposed me to a variety of thinkers and their work within the topics of identity, technology and economics. The lessons always had space for questions and discussions, and I really appreciated hearing the reflections of my classmates. The lectures offered a taste of some of the thought patterns, perspectives and structures today’s world is built on. The research project gave me the opportunity to dwell on the questions and think about them in a new way.

Studying Philosophy at King’s has augmented my capacity to reason, interpret my experiences, and evaluate art in all its forms. For helping me get my bearings in a field of inquiry in which it is so difficult to go alone, I am incredibly indebted to King’s and its outstanding Philosophy department. I also learned about monads.
