Philosophy Minor

The Philosophy minor introduces students to the variety of areas of philosophical inquiry while developing the critical and creative skills central to philosophical analysis.  Students develop an understanding of many of the great philosophers, major philosophical issues, and methods of philosophical inquiry that shape our most fundamental forms of reflection upon human life and conduct.  The minor in Philosophy is intended to broaden the student’s education, to complement and encourage creative reflection in other courses and major programs, and to encourage the student’s ability to think logically and ethically, a useful skill in any professional environment.
