Philosophy

The PHILOSOPHY faculty onward conducts in-resident studies of the first degree (licentiate, bachelor’s degree), which will be continued in the form of the second degree (master’s degree). In this transitory period there are still uniform master’s studies (for full-time and extramural students). The Faculty conducts doctoral and post-graduate studies.Their curricula are carried out in three groups: university subjects (The Bible, its essence and role in culture, Catholic Social Doctrine, and modern languages), subjects common for the whole faculty (among others, metaphysics, philosophical anthropology, general methodology of the sciences, general and particular ethics, history of ancient and medieval philosophy, history of modern and contemporary philosophy), and optional subjects within particular specialisations. The breadth and wealth of the didactic programme and research conducted by the staff of the Philosophy Faculty provide an opportunity for its students to specialise in very many areas. Specialisation is possible at the Department of Theoretical Philosophy within the following thematic blocks: logic and computer science, history, metaphysics and anthropology, social and political philosophy. At the Department of the Philosophy of Nature and Natural Sciences there are two chairs: philosophy of inanimate nature and philosophy of animate nature. Moreover, the two departments offer lectures in foreign languages.
