Program details

Overview

The Applied Ethics master's programme examines how moral practice interacts with ethical theory, applying philosophical frameworks to concrete dilemmas rather than treating ethics as a purely abstract subject. Students build a theoretical grounding in ethics, including its central methods and ongoing debates, and study how legal and political structures shape ethical argumentation. The programme includes the option of an internship at an international or national organisation or NGO, along with elective master-level courses taken abroad.
