Philosophy, Religion and Ethics, BA (Hons)

This interdisciplinary degree in philosophy, religion, and ethics lets you explore profound questions—from the value of religious faith and practices to the ethics of climate change and euthanasia—while developing and defending critical perspectives in the context of global events. Tackle big ideas like sex and science, God and mind, logic, and life's value, through modules taught by expert researchers. Receive guidance on structuring options, and in year three, write a dissertation with academic staff on a topic of passion. Graduates emerge with diverse viewpoints, clear communication of complex ideas, and skills in critical analysis and community engagement.Ranked Top 100 worldwide for Philosophy (QS 2023), the program features world-leading staff, the Sheffield Centre for Interdisciplinary Biblical Studies (renowned for religious texts and migration's impact), and the Centre for Engaged Philosophy (addressing criminal justice, social inclusion, and climate ethics). Join the award-winning Philosophy in the City project to introduce philosophical ideas to schoolchildren.
