Research in Philosophy

We have an active research community which is strongly committed to delivering the highest quality of philosophical research and which also ensures that postgraduates are well integrated into our research culture.

The department combines research excellence in all core areas of philosophy, with distinction in a number of specialty areas and strengths in many interdisciplinary areas. The department hosts the Birmingham Centre for Philosophy of Religion, and we host research themes that bring together the expertise of staff from across the university and offer our postgraduates a supportive and well-connected environment in which to study.
