this class, I came to know about various philosophical problems like the issues related to
the moral philosophy of a person, life after death, questions on the existence of god and
reality about the universal etc., rationalist and scientific approach of finding answers to
these questions, the importance of our mind and body in our decisions, the value of
human conduct from historical and contemporary point of view. It helps me in
understanding the philosophy in detail.
I feel that I developed lots of skills like critical thinking, communication skills for writing
effective and conveying my message verbally, increase my knowledge related to the
fundamental research and reading skills of the scholarly articles and Journals. Out of all
the skills, I believe that the most important skills which I developed during this course is
related to my knowledge of understanding the scholarly research. Prior to this course, I
was not aware about it much. But this class help me a lot in understanding the basis of
research which I have gained through reading, writing and with discussions. Now I am
able to understand the problems of the people through philosophical point of view and
can contribute in improving their life style by resolving their queries and doubts.

relevant material related to the topic for enhancing my knowledge and for conducting the
academic research in the right way.
