Study Philosophy at your own pace at the Erasmus University

Because philosophy is everywhere
Ludwig Wittgenstein

Erasmus School of Philosophy offers you the option to attend lectures in the Bachelor Philosophy. 

Study at day time or in the evening

Do you have the ambition to study Philosophy? Is combining a Bachelor Philosophy with your job, family or study a challenge? Consider taking part in lectures of your choice. One block takes 5 weeks and consists of lectures, workgroups, an exam and a resit. 

In the current age of uncertainty and rapidly advancing technologies, knowledge of philosophical problems and skills remains relevant. You will learn to express arguments clearly and to think critically and creatively.
