Abstract

FARIETA-BARRERA, René Alejandro. Comparative Analysis of the Curricula of Undergraduate Programs in Philosophy in Colombia, Part Two: Content. Folios [online]. 2018, n.48, pp.167-191. ISSN 0123-4870.

In this paper we analyze the curricula of the 55 undergraduate programs in philosophy in Colombia. We categorize them based on five criteria: title granted (professional); specific discipline (philosophy-philosophy and other disciplines); type of certification (qualified/ high quality); modality (on campus/online); and sector (official/private). We present a model to classify the academic spaces of the programs and apply it to all the curricula. Then, we present the means and trends according to the classification of the programs, first by comparing all the programs, and then by examining the professional programs and the degrees separately. We conclude that the main significant differences are between the programs from public and private universities, and also between programs taught on campus and online. Finally, we show the implications of the entry into force of a new regulation for bachelor's degrees in Colombia, so that in the future it is possible to evaluate the impact of the new policies on philosophy teaching at the university level in Colombia.
