Learning
Outline
Philosophy summer school at Oxford Summer Courses for ages 18-24 years. Study philosophy with Oxford Summer Courses. Our identities are bound by our individual beliefs and morals – but how did they become ingrained in us? Study Philosophy with us and find out. You’ll learn about different schools of thought and how to dissect ideas central to our perception of the world - you might even explore the theory of knowledge itself. We’ll also explore issues like God, evil, and morality, the mind-body problem, and animal ethics, questioning our thought paths and reasoning along the way. Develop your skills of thinking and argumentation even further by engaging with some of the most challenging areas of philosophical inquiry, from the nature of knowledge to the extent of ethics. Additionally, set and reflect on ambitious goals with our support, participate in tutorial Q&A sessions, and gain industry insights through discussions with experts. Explore future career pathways, understand the Oxford and Cambridge tutorial system, and visit diverse Oxford colleges for a comprehensive summer school experience.
Teaching methodology
Learn the Oxford way with tutorial-style teaching. Your expert tutor will foster self-directed learning and critical thinking through interactive seminars in small groups (no bigger than 8). During your course, you will complete two pieces of independent work (essays or problem sheets), which your tutor will then evaluate in either a 1:1 or 2:1 tutorial. Tutorials will provide you with the opportunity to discuss your work and feedback with your tutor and learn new perspectives from your classmates. On completion of the course, you'll receive a certificate and letter of recommendation from your tutor.
The Summer Courses experience
For ages 18-24, independent study takes precedence, allowing students to explore topics beyond seminars and develop their own ideas. Industry insights discussions and future pathways sessions offer valuable career guidance. Evening socials, diverse activities, and college visits contribute to a well-rounded experience.
