At a Glance
Our programs develop critical, creative and independent thinking skills that lead to excellence in graduate studies, professional training and many careers.
In philosophy, our students confront a wide range of issues through historical and contemporary resources. Topics covered include the nature of knowledge and reality, the relationship between the mind and brain, the possibility of free will, the ethical implications of scientific advances and the justification of moral, political and legal institutions.
In religious studies, our students investigate all aspects of religion and its impact on human affairs; and they examine various interpretations of religion, including religion as a social construction, as a psychological phenomenon, as a form of metaphysics and as a constellation of ritual practices.
Our talented faculty are committed to scholarship, teaching and enhancing opportunities for students.
