From reading the works of Plato and Aristotle to studying logic and phenomenology, students in the philosophy program are provided a broad-based learning experience. One of the arts and humanities disciplines in the Columbian College of Arts and Sciences, the program also examines the intersection of philosophy with other subjects, including law, biomedicine, science and politics. Students bring their passion for philosophy to spirited debates during events organized by the popular Colonial Philosophy Club.The Department of Philosophy and the Trachtenberg School of Public Policy and Public Administration work in cooperation to offer a dual bachelor of arts with a major in philosophy (public affairs focus) and master of arts in the field of public policy with a concentration in philosophy and social justice degree program. The program allows students to take 9 graduate credits as part of their undergraduate program, thereby decreasing the number of credits normally required for the master's degree. All requirements for both degrees must be fulfilled.
