Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Mathematics and Philosophy and Ethics (MM02)

At Liverpool Hope University, students will develop a passion and enthusiasm for mathematics and its applications. Mathematics encompasses many analytical and numerical methods that are used to solve scientific and industrial problems.

The program has been designed to help students develop strong analytical and numerate abilities and skills so that they learn how to look at problems, break them down into simpler questions and then solve them. Mathematics at Liverpool Hope University can be taken as a single honours degree or a combined honours degree with a related subject.

Philosophy and Ethics explores the big questions of life and morality. It challenges students to examine their assumptions, opinions and worldview.

Through close attention to the primary texts of philosophers such as Plato, Aquinas, Descartes, Hume, Kant and Nietzsche, Liverpool Hope University's Philosophy and Ethics degree will help students learn to analyze and evaluate arguments, and to compose and communicate their own ideas in a reasoned way. They will have a grounding in the foundational questions of philosophy. As students progress, they will look in depth at philosophy of religion, political philosophy, applied ethics and issues of human personhood, artificial intelligence and animality.
