Become a thoughtful, critical, and engaged citizen, capable of thinking carefully about what really matters and aspiring to live authentically. You’ll study current problems and historical perspectives in courses that explore critical thinking, social and political philosophy, philosophy of mind and language, and many other subfields of philosophy. In small classes taught by accessible, dedicated instructors, you’ll be encouraged to participate, ask questions, and debate theories and ideas. Through lively exchanges, you’ll develop a better understanding of different points of view and become a better thinker, debater, and writer; key skills for any career path you may choose.
