Philosophy
Philosophy majors study the history of Western thought and the foundational
ideas behind all institutions and thinking belonging to Western
society and beyond. The Philosophy program at UHD emphasizes both
the study of major figures and movements in the history of philosophy
as well as the application of philosophical ideas to social and political
problems, including questions about the meaning of life. Philosophy
not only broadens a student’s horizon of knowledge, but above all develops
the capacity for critical thinking, analysis, the art of persuasive
writing and reading skills. UHD Philosophy majors are prepared to go
on to graduate school in philosophy, as well as to engage in advanced
study of law, and a variety of other disciplines.
