EDF 7140 - Philosophy of Knowledge

Hours: 4
Philosophy of knowledge is concerned most fundamentally with epistemology, or in other words, the nature and scope of knowledge-what we know, how we know it, and how we organize what we know into systems such as academic and professional knowledge communities. This course examines how such systems of knowledge have developed in the contemporary world and investigates our beliefs about what can be known. Moreover, the course analyzes and evaluates the effectiveness and consequences to knowledge of dividing the pursuit and practices of knowing into academic and professional disciplines.
