Careers
Graduates of the Master's programme Philosophy will be versed in one or more of the sub-areas of philosophy and will have the skills to formulate, analyse and discuss philosophical problems. The programme prepares students for a career in teaching, journalism or any of the other writing professions, as well as for a variety of advisory and managerial positions in public organisations and government institutions.
