Minor subject in the combination Bachelor's degree course - only possible in combination with a major subject Standard period of study: 6 or 8 semesters (depending on combination) The degree depends on the major subject chosen. Further information on the structure of the combination Bachelor's degree course can be found here: https://www.uni-marburg.de/de/studium/studieninteressierte/studienmoeglichkeiten/kombibachelor The minor subject of Philosophy at the Philipps University of Marburg gives you a deep insight into the fundamentals of philosophy. After a broad introduction to ethics, theoretical philosophy, history and logic, you can deepen areas of your choice, but also acquire knowledge about aesthetics or other disciplines of philosophy. Enlightenment as a project and the task of philosophy, in history as well as in the present, guides teaching. You should be able to independently diagnose fundamental problems close to and remote from the subject and demonstrate ways of possibly solving problems with the support of methodological arguments. An integral part of the degree course is the MarSkills programme, in which you acquire attractive and future-oriented key skills (see https://www.uni-marburg.de/de/fb09/igs/arbeitsgruppen/sprechwissenschaft/marskills/was-ist-marskills).
