  • Philosophy

    Philosophy, literally the "love of wisdom," leads us to ask questions about ourselves, our world, and what may lie beyond. In pursuing these questions, students enhance their abilities in analysis, self-reflection, argumentation and communication. Students of philosophy have many options after graduation; philosophy is excellent training for careers in law, politics, and business.
