This Masters is designed for students who don't already have a degree in Analytic Philosophy. It will provide you with an in-depth knowledge of analytic philosophy, including such core areas as metaphysics, ethics, social and political philosophy, the history of philosophy, philosophy of the mind and philosophy of mathematics and language. If you so wish, this Masters can provide you with a fast-track route into a PhD in Philosophy. If you want to do a PhD in Philosophy but don't already have a Philosophy degree, then the MSc (Conversion) will allow you to apply straightaway for the PhD. MSc (Conversion) students will be embedded in a vibrant philosophical research community. Glasgow hosts the interdisciplinary Centre for the Study of Perceptual Experience bringing together philosophers and scientists to work on the nature of the mind. The Centre has philosophy specialists not only in perceptual experience but also virtual reality, emotions and hedonics. Philosophy students at Glasgow receive rigorous and personalised training in problem solving skills, writing skills, presentation and research skills. All these skills are widely applicable and recognised to be exceptionally valuable in a wide range of careers, including journalism, teaching, the Civil Service, local government, business, publishing, law, and the arts.
