The Philosophy program introduces the critical thinking methodology of philosophy, basic philosophical concepts, terminology, problems, and systems and schools. Philosophy also provides tools for understanding complex moral and ethical issues, and how living ethically contributes to conceptual models of the “good life.”

Ultimately, philosophy tackles the fundamental questions of human existence: the nature of God, truth, goodness, and beauty. As a core liberal arts discipline and a hallmark of Western civilization, philosophy provides a foundation for analytical and critical reasoning and for study in any discipline.
