2. Course description Summary: You will be involved in learning about a range of engaging topics. The course is split into two halves; Philosophy of Religion and Ethics. Course description: 'The great virtue of philosophy is that it teaches not what to think, but how to think...Philosophy is, in commercial jargon, the ultimate 'transferable work skill'. (The Times, 15th August 1998) This course requires you to have an enquiring mind, an interest in controversial ethical issues and a desire to examine some of the biggest questions in the universe. You will be involved in learning about a range of engaging topics, many of which will be new to you and which will challenge your opinions and thinking. The course is split into two halves; Philosophy of Religion and Ethics. The Philosophy side of the course looks at the origins of the idea of God, whether it's possible that such an idea or being could ever exist (or ever not exist!) The Ethics side of the course examines questions about right and wrong, good and bad. How do we decide what the moral thing to do is in any given situation? We then go on to look at some controversial ethical issues such as genetic engineering, euthanasia and abortion. Philosophy and Ethics will help to develop skills of reasoning, analysis and communication that will be valuable in any path you choose to take. Entry requirements: Five GCSEs at grades A*-C including English You do not need to have taken Philospohy and Ethics before, but if you have, you will need to have a GCSE at grade A*-C or equivalent.
