PHIL 1050 - Personal Values

This course is a philosophical study of our moral, social, and cultural values. Students will explore the origins of some of our most pressing concerns through the lens of philosophical theories and frameworks. Through discussion and written assignments, we’ll question the definition of a “good” life, the nature of power, whether or not out actions are pre-determined, and what makes an action good or bad. Students will improve their ability to develop, evaluate, and articulate their fundamental beliefs and the beliefs of others.
