Philosophy is a practical and vital field of study for all those seeking the Good Life. As power-hungry politicians and social media platforms continue to distort, confuse, and manipulate, philosophy instills in students the necessary self-critical attitude needed to face such challenges. As "lovers of truth," philosophers ask the difficult and important questions, ones central to any healthy and well-functioning life and democracy. If you are interested in living an authentic life, in which your beliefs and values are critically assessed and evaluated, then philosophy is the major or minor for you.
Few programs are as versatile as Philosophy in preparing you for the career of your choice. Philosophy majors pursue careers in law, medicine, business, finance, politics, cognitive science, and a host of other fields. A little known secret is that Philosophy majors excel at graduate and professional examinations, as well as achieve salaries and levels of professional success that rival other pursuits. Philosophy students often pursue the degree as a "side-dish" major, one in addition to their main major, helping to take their career to the next level.

“Philosophy is a crucial examination of our most fundamental beliefs and concepts. It asks questions that other areas of study don’t, and it does its best to answer them through the use of reason. Does God exist? Do we survive our bodily death? Does life have a meaning? What is the best life a person can lead? Is beauty in the eye of the beholder? These are some of the questions of philosophy.”
-Hye-Kyung Kim, Associate Professor, Humanistic Studies
