6About Faculty
You’re not afraid to be controversial
You don’t take anything at face value and always question beyond what you’ve been told. At Essex you will gain a critical perspective on the social, political and economic challenges we face today.
We expand the realm of the possible by going beyond what has so far been thinkable. Your degree will take you on a unique and intellectually stimulating journey as you raise new questions, study ideas and arguments and explore topics from life and death, to mass media and ethics.
- We’re 7th in the UK for research impact in philosophy (Grade Point Average, REF2021).
