The Department of Philosophy and Music offers courses in all programs of the University. Some deal with such issues as the problem of objective moral judgement, moral issues posed by medicine and psychiatry, business, education, law, politics, the media, problems of punishment and responsibility, human rights, sexual behaviour, social change, rising technocracy and technological development, and so on. Others analyse the foundations of knowledge, religion, and the arts, problems in the pure and applied natural and social sciences, divergent social and economic ideologies, political freedom and free will, human nature and the relation between mind and body. In sum, they provide the critical enlightenment expected of professionals who have been educated in the social and cultural contexts of their practices and in the forms of knowledge in which these practices have their roots.
The Department of Philosophy and Music includes a Musicology Section which offers courses in Music History.
