PhD Philosophy

University of Hull

Our Philosophy research covers an unusually rich variety of areas, from ancient philosophy to the present, including art and aesthetics, gender theory, philosophy of mind and embodiment, political philosophy and legal theory. In applied philosophy, focal areas include ethics, education, image technologies, and health. Our interests span many traditions and diverse approaches to philosophical issues. The PhD is aimed at outstanding students who wish to pursue advanced research in philosophy and ultimately to become professional researchers in, and teachers of, philosophy. Students produce a maximum 80, 000 word thesis that can provide the basis for professional publication.
