Bachelor of Arts - Philosophy, Ethics and Sustainability (V5L5)

University of Essex - Colchester Campus

What you will study

The BA in Philosophy, Ethics and Sustainability at Essex University is a course for anyone who wants to understand the environmental crises of today and play an active role in addressing them.

Philosophy provides students with the skills to analyse the environmental challenges the world faces and to creatively re-think humans' relationship to the non-human world. It ensures that students understand and respond appropriately to the ethical dimensions of environmental challenges, such as climate justice or animal ethics.

On this course, interdisciplinary modules such as “Addressing Global Sustainability Challenges” from Life Sciences enable students to make sense of the science behind these environmental challenges and to effectively cooperate with scientists in addressing these issues.

The BA also includes Interdisciplinary Studies modules such as “Social Entrepreneurs, Sustainability and Community Action” and “Community Engagement: Group Projects or Global Challenges” that prepare students to get actively involved in tackling environmental challenges.

This course offers a Philosophy-led, interdisciplinary approach to sustainability and focuses on the existential questions of human life, providing a critical perspective on the social, political and economic challenges faced today.
