Philosophy
Philosophy (Bachelor of Arts) critically examines fundamental beliefs. Philosophy majors explore answers to ultimate questions about human existence and critically examine the ethical and moral dimensions of life. Philosophical study develops the understanding and intellectual abilities essential for life in general. For students who intend to specialize in law or other professions requiring a broad knowledge base and a high level of critical-thinking skill, the philosophy major provides a foundation for continuing to develop the knowledge and skill required to continue growing as a broadly educated person while advancing in one’s area of specialization.
