Philosophy Program
Study in philosophy engages questions about how one should live,
our place in the universe, the nature of thought, and ways of
knowing. Philosophic inquiry involves carefully structured, thoughtful
engagement with others and with texts. Courses are designed to
enhance students’s abilities to pursue informed, adequate
responses to philosophic questions about various topics of both
historical and contemporary concern.
The Philosophy curriculum provides a major and minor for students
interested in a variety of careers who seek the breadth, depth,
and reasoned rigor of philosophic thinking. The Department offers
for all students introductory courses to explore the character
of Philosophy, and complements studies in other fields such as
law, medicine, politics, science, religion, art, and education.
Students in Philosophy successfully have pursued further graduate
study in various fields, have entered the world of work in many
kinds of organizations, and have addressed social issues through
law and other means.
