Philosophy

“Who are we?” “What is knowledge?” “What is truth?”

It’s the study of argument and its application to a wide variety of questions of fundamental importance to human life and intellectual activity. Studying Philosophy will allow you to discuss and debate and allows you to develop invaluable skills key for future employment.
