TUM student Benedict Scheu talks about his experiences with taking module courses in philosophy at the HFPH. Benedict Scheu is convinced that it is important to broaden economic and technological perspectives to include those of the humanities. Since 2019, TUM students have had the opportunity to take courses at the Munich School of Philosophy (HFPH) and earn extra credits. This allows them to take a look at completely different disciplines and put the content of their studies into a broader perspective. For example, they deal in depth with ethical and philosophical issues that are of central importance for technological or economic contexts. Benedict Scheu has seized this opportunity. In the interview, he talks about his experiences. Dear Mr. Scheu, you are actually studying at the TUM School of Management. Yes, I'm in my fourth semester of the Master's in Management & Technology. The focus on just one particular discipline, one scientific field, has always seemed a bit narrow to me. I find business issues very fascinating, but I'm also interested in new technologies. In my master's program, I can combine these two in the best possible way: I get an excellent management education, but at the same time I also gain profound insights into other fields, in my case mainly chemistry and industrial engineering. With the "Modulstudien Philosophie", module courses at the Munich School of Philosophy, you then added a third dimension to your studies. Why did you decide to take courses at the HFPH?
