Graduate Diploma in Philosophy
Philosophy is for thinkers and doers. It's about solving real-life problems, and applying intellectual rigour to how we understand and interact with others, society and the world. Studying Philosophy at Waikato will teach you how to learn, think and write clearly, argue vigorously, and question deeply held assumptions and beliefs.
The study of Philosophy involves tackling ethical and science-related issues, logic problems and debates about the nature of reality.
