Faculty of Philosophy

About Us

The Faculty of Philosophy was officially established on December 7 2009 by obtaining the Higher Education Decree Number 2334/D/T/2009 and confirmed through the Decree of the Management Board of the Widya Mandala Foundation Surabaya Number: 003/YWMS/S K/I/2010. Based on the Decree of the National Accreditation Board for Higher Education Number 3797/SK/BAN-PT/Akred/S/X/2017, the Bachelor of Philosophy Study Program has been declared accredited with a B rating.

The Faculty of Philosophy was founded with two basic objectives. The first is the need for human resources who are able to think critically, rationally, develop clear concepts, have in-depth knowledge and sensitivity to humanity, formulate strategies, and are able to implement all of this wisely in daily practice. All of this will be explained in lectures organized by the Faculty.

Second, Philosophy is needed to create human resources who have thorough and in-depth knowledge about human life. With that, it is hoped that graduates of the Faculty of Philosophy will be able to help create a critical academic climate, both internally in higher education institutions and in the wider community. The hope is that the Faculty of Philosophy will be able to produce future nation thinkers, strategic decision makers, and professional workers in various fields of life.

Hi, Wimates Welcome to the Faculty of Philosophy!

The UKWMS Faculty of Philosophy consistently presents philosophical reflections on humanitarian challenges. These reflections are enriched by actual studies from various scientific perspectives. Openness as well as breadth of study makes philosophy able to dialogue with various sciences to thoroughly explore the reality of humans and their world. The implementation of the Tri Dharma, namely teaching, research, and community service is colored by these reflections. The Merdeka Belajar program allows exploration of multidisciplinary actual themes. Collaboration with various institutions, both national and international, further enriches the implementation of the Tri Dharma while improving the quality of governance throughout the education process. The Faculty of Philosophy UKWMS seeks to create an "Academic Community that is reflective, critical, creative, and excels in philosophical studies of fundamental issues with a focus on the study of Applied Ethics and Divine Philosophy, which is imbued with the spirit of social responsibility and based on Pancasila values and the principles of Catholic principles."
In the midst of this era of disruption, let's be more reflective, critical, and creative with us! Join immediately!
