What kind of Philosophy is for you?

We offer three majors and three corresponding minors.

Philosophy: the traditional comprehensive approach to all philosophical issues, balancing theoretical and practical topics, historical and contemporary figures, and drawing from multiple philosophical approaches from around the globe.

Philosophy and Law: NEW as of Fall 2026!  A focus on legal, ethical, political, and social issues that you would face in a career in law or related fields, with a strong emphasis on critical reasoning skills needed for the LSAT and law school. (Current students with a “Philosophy Major – Concentration in Philosophy and the Law” may switch to this new, separate major in Fall 2026)

Philosophy and the Sciences:  NEW as of Fall 2026! A focus on the methods, ethical issues, social implications, controversies, key theoretical claims, and practical demands of the natural, biological, agricultural, social, medical, and environmental sciences.
