Philosophy uses both logical reasoning and creative imagination to investigate some of the most fundamental questions about the human experience and the nature of reality. Our students become independent and critical thinkers who are equipped to excel in any profession.Philosophy is a preferred pre-law and pre-medicine major because it develops strong analytic and critical thinking skills. These transferrable skills are essential in other professions, such as information technology, journalism, banking, counseling, non-profit leadership, real estate, law, marketing, consulting, and business leadership.
