In accordance with the program’s principal subject s/he has the opportunity to get to know particular traditions and conceptions as well as specific philosophical issues related to the experience and thought characteristic of Central and Eastern Europe. Using the knowledge and competences related to self-presentation techniques and media technology, combined with his/her advanced philosophical knowledge, the graduate of the program can cooperate as an expert, guest editor, commentator or moderator with the media and other cultural institutions (radio, television, newspapers, publishing companies, editorial boards of magazines, web portals, culture centers, etc.).

After completing the program the graduates have all necessary skills to undertake the analysis, presentation and interpretation of philosophical texts and other forms of cultural output, to understand and translate texts written in foreign languages, as well as to effectuate creative and critical thinking. They have the opportunity to acquire skills empowering them to carry out autonomous philosophical and ethical research, to come up with their own interpretation of events and to identify and analyze the main problems and challenges of contemporary times. They understand the specificity of the tradition, culture and philosophical thought characteristic of Central and Eastern Europe and can employ its legacy and achievements. They recognize the topicality, cultural importance and practicality of philosophical issues undertaken in the area of Central and Eastern Europe, revealing the present-day aspects of human experience and thought. The graduates obtain the ability to communicate effectively and think synthetically, which, in turn, allows them to take the challenges that involve finding efficient solutions to problems, creating plans of action and preparing comprehensive strategies. Thus, they may find employment in the field of broadly understood consulting. They can make valuable contributions to projects concerning matters related to bioethics, the creation of codes of ethics for institutions and companies, the development of coaching schemes for individual clients, as well as the enhancement of social skills and proper argumentation techniques.
