Philosophy Students Elevate the Conversation by Asking the Big Questions
From esoteric ponderings to the most practical decisions of daily life, philosophy students interrogate inherited assumptions and illuminate new ways of being, thinking, and doing in the world.
Educated in skills necessary in all fields—critical reading and analysis, complex and creative problem-solving, insightful questioning, integrative and “big picture” thinking, ethical decision-making—philosophy students are prepared for anything and everything after graduation.
