Comments about BA Religion, Philosophy & Ethics - At the institution - London - Greater London

• Objectives
  This programme, wholly taught within our department, combines the study of religion with work in ethics and philosophy. We aim to provide you with detailed knowledge of at least two strands of religion (with emphasis on their conceptual/theoretical content); knowledge of key problems in the philosophical analysis of religious concepts; and knowledge of problems in theoretical and applied ethics. You will deal with the conceptual content of selected major world faiths. You take modules in the philosophy of religion designed to teach relevant philosophical skills such as the ability to think in a rigorous and critical way. Modules in moral philosophy (theoretical and applied) supplement the study of Christian ethics.
• Entry requirements
  We ask for 320 UCAS points i.e. AAC or ABB A level grades. Our teaching does not presuppose any previous knowledge of computer science and in selecting candidates for admission we do not insist on evidence of prior competence in computer programming.
