Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in Philosophy 哲學(榮譽)文學士

BA (Hons) Philosophy

Short Description

Philosophy (the name comes from Greek, by way of Latin, philosophia, and means ‘love of wisdom’) is the critical examination of the grounds for fundamental beliefs.  It is concerned with the fundamentals of thinking itself and as such impinges on all important questions in our daily and professional lives.  In addition to giving students the knowledge they need to fill relevant positions in a variety of professions, such as publishing, journalism, education and so on, the present programme emphasises the development of the ability to think analytically, critically and creatively, and to communicate clearly and effectively. Graduates of this programme are expected to be both resourceful problem solvers and responsible citizens.
