Introduction to the Program
A course created to provide the professional with the necessary teaching skills to make the teaching of political philosophy a formative success of enormous value for the students"
Philosophy brings a different point of view on the reality and on the things that make it immensely attractive from an employment point of view. In today's job market, philosophers who complement their studies with master's degrees in investment and finance, for example, or economics students who enrich their intellectual background with master's degrees in philosophy are immensely valued and sought after by head-hunters from all over the world. The philosopher's ability to see things from a different perspective, to think outside the box, of looking at reality from a different perspective, is a fundamental asset in the creative and frenetic world we live in. Personally, philosophy helps us to see things, as the great Spinoza said, sub aespecie aeternitatis, that is, through a prism of eternity, knowing that in the great context of the world and the universe our actions are both relevant and insignificant. The role of philosophy as a consolatory discipline before the evils and misfortunes of this world, has always been fundamental and also allows us to better understand our nature, our actions, our morality, our being. In short, philosophy helps us to grow as people, to mature as individuals, to be more responsible citizens and to improve our work performance. This program approaches philosophy from a global but at the same time totally accessible aspect. Other master's programs also focus on the purely theoretical study of philosophy, disconnecting it from the pedagogical aspect, while this one will always try to maintain a teaching approach. Today, it is more important than ever to offer a teaching of philosophy that is both rigorous and comprehensible. Students can expect to gain a complete body of knowledge of the most fundamental philosophical themes, from the most purely theoretical and metaphysical to the most practical and active human issues.
