Introduction to Philosophy

You would think a course that grapples with mind-boggling concepts and is required for most college degrees would be taught in small, Socratic groups where professors can personally expand their students’ minds, rather than huge lecture halls where you’re no more than an ID number. You’d be wrong. Why not get the in-depth assistance you need by taking online Introduction to Physics, with one-on-one access to tutors who can explain it all, 24/7/365?

You’ll study the major themes and concepts of philosophy, including metaphysics, epistemology, free will and determinism, evil and the existence of God, personal identity, ethical values and politics, modern cognitivism and more. And you’ll meet the major philosophers throughout the ages: Socrates, Descartes, Locke, Hume, Kant, Hegel, Nietzsche, Mill and Marx. You’ll also explore Eastern influences on Western philosophy, including Taoism, Confucianism and Zen Buddhism.
