Tulisan ini mencoba mengungkapkan pengalaman penulis tentang keterlibatannya dalam menangani flsafat ilmu pengetahuan, etika dan flsafat yang menyentuh masalah keilmuan dan kebudayaan. Dalam rangka peneerdasan kehidupan bangsa, flsafat memiliki target-target yang jarang diperhatikan oleh pengelolah ilmu pengetahuan. Melalui mata kuliah tersebut di atas, flsafat dapat membantu pengembangan nalar keilmuan, membawa ilmuwan bergumul dengan masalah moral dan kebudayaan. Dan yang paling penting, flsafat dapat membuka mata setiap orang untuk membangun peradaban yang lebih demokratis dengan nalarnya yang kritis.Kata Kunci: Filsafat, ilmu pengetahuan, kesadaran moral, demokrasi, Pusat Pengembangan Etika Atma Jaya, Panca Sila.Abstract: Teaching philosophy as basic subject for students of different schools of the same university aims to prepare them with the discipline of abstract but universal and correct thinking.
