The Raffles Philosophy Course
The course helps you to understand the nature and construction of knowledge and how it reflects the values and ideologies within a society at a certain point in time. You will then be able to reflect about the very act of thinking, so that you can become conscious of who you are, why you act the way you do and what you believe in.
