The department offers a wide range of courses designed to acquaint the student with traditional
and contemporary work in ethics, metaphysics, aesthetics, theory of knowledge, philosophy of science, logic, and the history of philosophy. The courses are designed to facilitate student participation. The student is expected to develop a competence in techniques of conceptual analysis, argument, and the interpretation of texts.
Although it is not required for the major or for the minor, students who have not had previous training in philosophy are advised to take one of PHIL BC 1001–1006. Credit for only one of PHIL BC 1001–1006 will be given for the major or for the minor.
