The Department of Philosophy was ranked 2nd in the UK for its research in REF2021, with 100% of our research impact and 45.5% of our publications ranked at 4 (the highest grade).

We have a healthy postgraduate community of around 30 PhD students and 30 MA students, and more than 500 undergraduates across multiple programmes, including PPE, Philosophy and English, History, Linguistics, Modern Languages, Sociology, Maths and Physics. There are 24 permanent academic staff. Our research and teaching covers a broad range of areas and approaches within the discipline, with notable strengths in philosophy of mind and psychology, ethics and political philosophy, philosophy of health, metaphysics, and the history of philosophy.

The University strives to be diverse and inclusive – a place where we can ALL be ourselves.
We particularly encourage applications from people who identify as Black, Asian or from a Minority Ethnic background, who are underrepresented at the University. The Department of Philosophy also encourages applications from women, who are underrepresented in the Department and the discipline.
We offer family friendly, flexible working arrangements, with forums and inclusive facilities to support our staff. #EqualityatYork
