Philosophy

1. Epistemology

   • Epistemology is the study of knowledge. It is primarily concerned with what we can know about the world and how we can know it.

2. Metaphysics

   • At its core the study of metaphysics is the study of the nature of reality, of what exists in the world, what it is like, and how it is ordered.
     • Cosmology
       • a central branch of metaphysics, that studies the origin, fundamental structure, nature, and dynamics of the universe.
         • Theodicy
           • branch of theology and metaphysics the object of which is the nature of the gods, or of the one supreme God. In monotheistic religions, this principally involves arguments about the attributes or non-attributes of God, and especially the existence of God - arguments which are purely philosophical, and do not involve recourse to any supernatural revelation.
     • Ontology
       • a central branch of metaphysics. Ontology is the study of the nature of being, becoming, existence, or reality, as well as the basic categories of being and how they relate to each other. In simpler terms, ontology investigates what there is.

3. Ethics

   • The study of ethics often concerns what we ought to do and what it would be best to do. In struggling with this issue, larger questions about what is good and right arise.

4. Logic

   • Another important aspect of the study of philosophy is the arguments or reasons given for people answers to these questions. To this end philosophers employ logic to study the nature and structure of arguments.

5. the study of the fundamental nature of knowledge, reality, and existence, especially when considered as an academic discipline.
