Why study Philosophy?
Philosophy is about curiosity and the desire to understand. Pursued academically, it helps us seek answers to the fundamental questions of human existence. It promotes autonomous thought, fosters critical thinking, and encourages not to be satisfied with a substandard – even if mainstream – solution.
Philosophy also generates foundational knowledge for other disciplines by exploring the conditions of human knowledge, thought, and action. With its commitment to precise concepts and logically stringent arguments, it sheds light on misunderstandings arising from language and reveals mistakes and fallacies in reasoning.
