Master of Arts (Philosophy)
Course Overview
If you are interested in studying philosophy, you will benefit from The University of Notre Dame Australia’s highly-focused program and tradition of educating the whole person. Through the University’s Core Curriculum, all of our students study both theology and philosophy, but the Master of Arts (Philosophy) will particularly appeal to students who have either a professional or personal interest in philosophy. This program is a coursework degree and includes a research project component. You will complete a core course in Reason and Revelation and 12 Philosophy courses of your choice, followed by a supervised research project in an area of your choice. Your studies begin within the context of the University, with Reason and Revelation, which begins with philosophical analysis and explanation of concepts of reason, reasoning, and believing and acting upon reasons. It then relates reason to revelation (Scripture and Tradition) before considering the relationship between philosophy and theology.
