Why study Philosophy BA at UB?

Philosophy studies the foundation of values, examines the nature of justice, knowledge and reality, and sets the mind working with accuracy and imagination.

The student of philosophy learns the fundamental theories and concepts that have framed our intellectual heritage, and also learns the essential tools to investigate and develop the ideas that shape our lives today. Philosophy is especially well equipped to teach skills that are important for success in almost any endeavor: how to think critically, how to construct arguments and examine reasons, and how to formulate and express ideas clearly both verbally and in writing.

A major in philosophy provides a solid foundation for advanced study in almost any field, for entering a profession, and for entering the job market with confidence. Because philosophy trains the student to think clearly and critically, it is excellent preparation for the many professions that require these skills.

Learning Outcomes

Besides learning about specific developments in the history of philosophy, philosophy students are expected to develop crucial critical reading, thinking and writing skills through their coursework. Philosophy majors should become adept at identifying, analyzing, and comparing different positions in ethics, political philosophy, and other subject areas, learning to construct and evaluate arguments for and against competing claims.

Career Outlook

Many philosophy majors go on to post-baccalaureate study in law, medicine, or philosophy. Philosophy majors pursue careers in teaching, medicine, law, business, social and natural sciences, arts, journalism and government. Position titles for philosophy B.A.'s include, among others: research analyst, grant coordinator, underwriter, fund raiser, story analyst, employment interviewer, financial aid counselor, credit counselor, claims adjudicator, lobbyist, and recruiter.
