Introducation:

In view of the importance of Philosophy as a foundational subject, The University felt the need to introduce Philosophy in the University of Peshawar. So in 1962, the subject was introduced initially for Honours Degree in Philosophy. In 1963, however, the department was elevated from Honour’s to Master’s level and ever since the Department has been running Post-Graduate courses in Philosophy. In fact, the Department was able to produce its first batch of Twenty-two graduates in 1965.

In the year 2000, the Department moved further and has developed M.Phil and PH.D Courses. These courses are duly approved and the Department is seriously planning to initiate M.Phil and Ph.D. Programme from the forth-coming academic session.
