Master's Scholarship: see relevant information here .AboutPhilosophy, and more specifically moral philosophy, has a practical and applied dimension as a reason for being - that is, philosophy necessarily opens up to society and culture; On the other hand, we see how in society, in its institutions, in its professional organizations and in its different forms of expression, there is a manifest concern for ethics (creating committees, advice, etc.). This University Master's Degree responds to this double movement: from philosophy to society and from society to ethic philosophy. From the moral philosophy we offer knowledge, tools and devices capable of showing the "practical" value of philosophy and, at the same time, they are a valuable, and necessary, resource to channel the ethical concerns that our societies live, feel and demand.
