The Master in Philosophy at USI differs from many other philosophy programs:
– It offers courses in contemporary analytic philosophy and in the history of philosophy, ancient and medieval, which are designed to complement each other.
– Its focus is on theoretical philosophy and its history – especially on metaphysics and the philosophy of mind.
– It has a strong thematic unity; the topic of the 2018/2020 Master is time and existence.
– It requires students to submit regular written work, to produce research papers and to develop their discussion skills in class.
This full-time study program comprises 120 ECTS spread over 4 semesters (usual duration 2 years). All philosophy courses are in English. It is possible for students to earn their degree by taking courses in English only.
