The teaching of the Philosophy of Knowledge is part of the complementary training activities of the CDS in Philosophical Sciences. At the end of the course students are expected to acquire the following skills: understanding of the problems of metaphysics, logic and theory of knowledge in relation to their theoretical-methodological evolution and to the different lines of contemporary debate;
in-depth knowledge of texts and currents of thought dealing with these problems as well as training in the ability to discuss their specific philosophical proposals;
training in the ability to elaborate the relationship between the aforementioned theoretical issues and the main developments of today's human, social, and physical-natural sciences.

In particular, the following modalities will be applied: remote teaching through the University's platforms (Moodle and Microsoft Teams).Attendance
Attendance is not mandatory but particularly recommended. Not attending students have to study for the oral exam an additional text to choose from those indicated, for each module, in the section "Recommended texts".Type of evaluation
The evaluation takes place through a final oral examination on the topics and texts considered during the course and an evaluation of the active participation in class and in group works. The study by students attending the course of one of the "Recommended Texts" will be properly taken into account for the evaluation of the exam. Not attending students are required to study an additional text to be chosen from those indicated, for each module, in the "Recommended Texts" section of this program.
