Philosophy courses include subjects relevant to knowledge, ethics and other relevant topics. These deal with investigation of human cognition & perception. These range from philosophical investigation of existence & causation to epistemological investigation of nature of knowledge acquisition. While logic examines principles of sound reasoning & critical thinking, ethics debates focus on moral theories & concepts. You can pursue Philosophy courses as an Arts degree in India.
