BULSU Department of Philosophy and Humanities

Bulacan State University through the initiatives of the Department of Philosophy and Humanities, proudly mark its 7th Edition of UNESCO’s World Philosophy Day, a tradition sustained since 2019.

In line with this global observance, the Department held a Public Philosophical Symposium with the theme “Artificiality and Authenticity: Rethinking Personhood, Roles, and Justice.”

The event invited the BulSU community to engage in deep reflection on the intersections of human identity, technology, and moral responsibility in an increasingly artificial world.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Assistant Professors Rodrigo Emil Carreon and Jairus Diesta Espiritu, esteemed philosophy professors from Mapúa University, for sharing their profound insights that inspired our students and faculty to think more critically, reflectively, and ethically about the challenges of our time.

Special thanks to BulSU Taytayan and the Ethics students of BSIT-2H for their coverage and documentation of the program.

Mabuhay ang Pilosopiya!

Let us continue to nurture a community that values wisdom, dialogue, and the pursuit of truth.
