Our mission is to promote our students' development as independent and critical thinkers, and to guide their reflective engagement with fundamental questions about the nature of knowledge and reasoning, of ethical and aesthetic values, and of mind and world.<br>Students in our programs develop strong critical thinking, research, and communication skills, which are essential for success in any career. Those skills provide philosophy majors with the flexibility to adapt and grow as technologies and economic markets change. Our graduates have gone on to careers in higher education, medicine, law, information technology, business, non-profit leadership, publishing, and government.
