在这里学什么？

The Department of Philosophy's M.A. program is one of the top terminal M.A. programs in philosophy in the United States. We offer core graduate training in philosophy in the broadly analytic tradition, with particular strengths in the history and philosophy of science and in ethics, social and political philosophy. Many of our students enter with the intention of enriching their philosophical background and then going on to Ph.D. studies elsewhere. We have been highly successful in placing our students in leading doctoral programs. Other students simply wish to gain a deeper knowledge of philosophy before going on to other disciplines or professions. In addition to the philosophy M.A., we participate in Ph.D. programs in Science, Technology and Society (which has a philosophy track), and in the Alliance for Social, Political, Ethical, and Cultural Thought.

The M.A. degree requires a minimum of 30 credit hours of graduate level work. Students may complete the requirements for the M.A. degree through either the thesis or non-thesis tracks. Students pursuing the thesis track write a thesis and take at least 24 hours of regular coursework. Students pursuing the non-thesis track take at least 27 hours of regular coursework and complete a set of comprehensive exams at the conclusion of the two year program.
