About the Department

The Philosophy Honours program at Government General Degree College, Mohanpur, is one of the most highly sought-after courses at our institution. Philosophy is a vast discipline that nurtures our thinking and rational approach towards controversial issues, enhancing our argumentation skills and enabling us to uncover the hidden assumptions of other fields. It fosters intellectual values such as open-mindedness, truth, non-violence, and tolerance of diverse opinions. Philosophy, regardless of one's worldview, can enrich and complement thoughts and ideas, guiding individuals towards achieving the highest good in life.

Our goal is to foster a rational mindset and critical thinking among students, especially young researchers, to contribute to a society that is free from dogma and grounded in justice and equity. We aim to create a center of excellence in both teaching and innovative research. We are committed to advancing rationality and critical thinking in our students, with a strong emphasis on interdisciplinary research that bridges social, moral, and natural sciences.
