Undergraduate Program
Several sections of the introductory course are offered. All use a topical approach to the problems of philosophy. A large number of middle-level courses are offered to meet the needs of students who wish to take courses that might be particularly relevant to their own field of concentration. Many philosophy courses are particularly suited to the needs of students with interdisciplinary concentrations. The department also offers specialized and intensive courses of a historical, methodological, and systematic character for those students who wish to major in philosophy. A major may serve as a preparation for graduate study, or, as is more usually the case, as a sound foundation for a liberal education. Many majors go into professions such as law, where training in philosophical analysis is particularly advantageous.
