The Master's in Philosophical Anthropology and Philosophy of Culture at Leiden University combines in-depth knowledge with advanced academic training
Taught by Leiden University's internationally-acclaimed faculty, the programme investigates the basis of our understanding of human beings and the ways in which we study them
Questions raised in philosophical anthropology and its adjacent disciplines of philosophy of mind, culture and technology include: What are human beings? What sets humans apart from other beings? Can humans be properly studied through the natural sciences? Are disciplines such as the humanities, psychology and cultural studies conceptually contiguous with the natural sciences?
This intellectually-rigorous programme attracts talented and highly-motivated students. In-class discussions with fellow students will help fine-tune your reasoning skills and ability to formulate logical and persuasive arguments. Classes are kept deliberately small to allow for a high level of contact with your lecturers, many of whom are leading researchers in their fields.
