Welcome to the Department of Philosophy at the University of Innsbruck!

We do philosophy in its entire thematic breadth and from a variety of different perspectives, such as analytic philosophy, phenomenology, and hermeneutics. Our research can be found in numerous journals and books. We take care to ensure that different traditions, approaches, and positions are not only represented within the Institute but brought together in our research, projects, and teaching in a respectful, open, and free dialogue.

It is our goal to share this open and diverse atmosphere with our students. They can enrol in a Bachelor’s programme, a Master’s programme, and a PhD programme. In addition, the Institute organizes and coordinates the new teacher training programme in ethics. We offer an exciting, varied and international study environment that familiarizes our students with research, teaching, and practice.

At the Institute, philosophy is not only what we do; it is what we live.
