SP characteristics

The study programme offers a master's degree in applied ethics to both graduates of related undergraduate courses and those working in various areas of social life where they encounter ethical issues and problems. The program provides the theoretical basis for evaluating practice through the lens of anthropology, philosophy, and ethics, with a grounding in a values- and spiritually-oriented type of thinking. The aim is to convey to students the competencies that will enable them to identify and address the ethical problems of the day. Students will acquire the ability to reflect on ethical issues independently, respecting their complexity and the diversity of possible answers; they will be able to argue for their moral position in an informed and comprehensible manner, including when speaking in public forums.
