文学硕士-哲学

文学硕士（MA）学位有两种途径，分别是课程工作或论文。MA可以为教育，地区和国家政府机构，私营部门以及工业界的就业做好准备。该学位也是哲学博士（PhD）的入学资格。哲学家讨论的问题是如此基础和笼统，以至于某个时候或其他大多数人都遇到过。哲学是试图评估我们的信念和我们所遵循的原则的基础。哲学的基本问题几乎与大学教授的每门学科都息息相关，因此100层次的哲学论文是任何学位的有用组成部分。更高层次的哲学论文研究了许多学科的基础，包括科学，思想和语言，宗教，伦理，政治和逻辑。
The skills and knowledge you gain from studying philosophy will make you a better student in other subjects, they will also be invaluable in a wide variety of occupations because philosophy focuses less on what you believe, and more on the quality of your reasons for believing it.Philosophy provides a toolkit to critically engage with difficult and important questions. It seems that some actions are right and others are wrong, but it's difficult to explain if this is because one produces better outcomes or the other respects humanity. It seems that some scientific claims are almost certainly true, but a crucial element of the success of science is its willingness to revise its claims in light of new evidence.<br>Some of our students go on to successful careers as professional philosophers, but for most of our students, it's not about getting a career in philosophy, it's about getting some philosophy into their careers.<br>Many surveys of salary by degree only look at salary after a few years of graduation, which can be misleading. A survey of 1.2 million degree holders by PayScale, Inc., cited in the Wall Street Journal, shows that Philosophy majors increase their starting salary by 103.5% after 10 years, an equal best with mathematics among all majors. The overall mid career salary for a philosophy major at the 75th percentile is 127,000 U.S. dollars, 9th among all 50 majors surveyed.<br>Philosophy gives you a unique mix of analytical and literary skills that are highly sought after by employers whether you are pursuing a career in academia or elsewhere.
