Philosophy is the study of general and fundamental problems concerning matters such as existence, knowledge, values, reason, mind and language. A philosophy degree may cover the complexity of humanity, as well as raising common philosophical questions. Philosophy is the perfect choice for any student who would like to develop their questioning, critical thinking and discussion, rational argument, and research skills.
The Netherlands is a great choice for international students, as it has a very large international population that would be ready to make any new international students feel at home. The Netherlands was also one of the first non-native English speaking countries to offer courses taught in English to international students. The Dutch people have a long standing reputation of being tolerant and open minded, meaning you will feel welcomed and comfortable as soon as you arrive in the country.
