Philosophy
Philosophy challenges students to move beyond uncritical patterns of thought, to recognize problems, and to exchange a more naive world view for a more considered and justifiable one. In doing so, students learn to think in ways that are simultaneously both disciplined and imaginative.
Six months after graduation, 89% of Philosophy Department graduates were employed, in graduate school, or completing post-graduate service.
