Philosophical anthropology as a specific paradigm in philosophical studies of human being and of human experience is characterized by a philosophical quest to understand "the whole person."
Philosophical Anthropology MA Program aims to introduce students to the basic theory of continental philosophy about the nature of the human being and the specificity of human existence, particular attention is paid to the views of the regenerators of philosophical anthropology in the 20th century - Max Scheler and Helmuth Plessner.
Philosophical methodology is mainly phenomenology, understood in a broad sense, including both the ideas of the founder of phenomenology, Edmund Husserl and Martin Heidegger, with versions of Jean-Paul Sartre, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Gaston Bachelard and their followers of contemporary phenomenology.
Philosophical Anthropology MA Program aims to integrate teaching with the academic research on the subject, conferences and academic publications (monographs, collections and translated texts of classical and modern researchers from the paradigm of philosophical anthropology).
