哲学学士

哲学系设有一个小型的，学术活跃的，以学生为中心的本科课程。我们的使命是提供一所大型研究型大学的所有优势，提供出色的文科教育。接受过哲学教育的学生可以理解和应对哲学问题，理论和论据，并进行批判性和创造性的反应。哲学系学生研究了使人类迷惑了很长时间的基本问题。学生接受指导的领域包括逻辑，伦理，社会政治哲学，法律哲学，知识论，科学哲学，大陆哲学，形而上学，古代和现代哲学史以及宗教哲学。由于学生在哲学课上充满了批判性思维，因此哲学学习为包括法律，商业，医学和新闻业在内的广泛职业提供了强有力的准备。
The Department of Philosophy is home to a small, academically vibrant, student-centered, undergraduate program. Our mission is to provide an outstanding liberal arts education with all the advantages of a large research university. Philosophy students are trained to understand and to respond both critically and creatively to philosophical problems, theories and arguments. Philosophy students investigate fundamental questions that have puzzled human beings for ages. The areas in which students receive instruction include logic, ethics, social-political philosophy, philosophy of law, theory of knowledge, philosophy of science, continental philosophy, metaphysics, history of ancient and modern philosophy, and philosophy of religion. Because of the vigorous critical thinking students enjoy in a philosophy class, the study of philosophy provides a strong preparation for a wide range of careers including law, business, medicine and journalism.
