专业概况

在这里学什么？

Philosophy develops critical reasoning skills, clarity in thought and language, and competence in synthesizing a good deal of information into a systematic, coherent picture. These abilities form a core part of the skill set for anyone who hopes to flourish in a complex, diverse, multicultural world.

It is noteworthy that, as a group, philosophy majors do exceptionally well on many standardized tests required for graduate and professional schools, including the LSAT and the GRE. Given its own curriculum, but also its central position between the special sciences (humanities and natural sciences alike), philosophy is relevant to foundational and conceptual questions arising in almost all other disciplines, with which it often shares its subject matter. Therefore, philosophy is not only a great choice for those who love its own questions, but also an ideal double major for people who want to explore the depths beneath the fields of their other major.

In addition, Philosophy is particularly useful to those who are thinking about certain post-college careers in law, business, education, politics, medicine, and social activism.

The Philosophy major aims to provide students with a grounding in basic skills and background in philosophy (including logic, ethics, and the history of philosophy), while leaving leeway for students to pursue themes or periods of particular interest to them. The major requires 13 courses, four of which satisfy the core requirements, and nine of which are electives.

The four core requirements (along with the courses that fulfill them) are as follows:

Logic: PHIL 150 or PHIL 250 Ethics: PHIL 260 or PHIL 261 History of Philosophy: PHIL 210-1 (Ancient Philosophy) History of Philosophy: PHIL 210-3 (Early Modern Philosophy)
