Philosophy

Overview

Within the Philosophy MA programme at the University of Hradec Králové  

Philosophy is not conceived as an isolated discipline but as a discipline in dialogue with the findings of the social sciences (and some natural sciences), especially sociology, cultural and social anthropology, political science, cognitive science etc.

Students are well oriented in international philosophical discussions and will understand international developments of philosophical issues. The Philosophical Faculty’s strength lies in core areas of analytic philosophy, especially the philosophy of mind and the philosophy of language. 

Career prospects

Philosophy leaves students with abilities applicable to a remarkably broad range of career endeavours.

Transferable skills include rigorous critical thinking; the ability to understand, interpret and analyze texts; and reasoning and argumentation in both written and verbal forms.

Graduates are professionally and linguistically fully prepared to work in public institutions, business management, non-governmental organizations, and the media.
