Description: Departments proposed by the Doctoral Programme (Philosophy, Metaphysics and Theory of Knowledge, Logics and Philosophy of Science, of the Universitat de València) accumulate a whole integrity of the thematic areas that constitute the theoretical philosophy, along with its essential logic-methodical and historical perspectives: the entire history of philosophy, philosophical anthropology, logic, philosophy of science, language, art, and religion; Theory of knowledge, ontology, metaphysics, philosophy of mind and aesthetics. The inter-thematic and methodically systematized treatment of the axis of this plot is essential in regards to the basic philosophical training. This task must recognize in those Departments of the University of Valencia (only entity which issues the certificate of Philosophy in the context of its 5 public or state universities) that request the reference of philosophical specialized theoretical training.
