Summary

"Philosophy" means love of wisdom in Greek. The practice of philosophy begins, as Aristotle said, with a sense of wonder. From simple questions children ask—"Why?", "What is God like?", "Does the universe come to an end?" —to complex queries such as the nature of virtue, the meaning of existence, the nature of human knowledge, the nature of reality, the nature of God, etc.

Programs in the Department of Philosophy and Religious Studies lead to either a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) degree or a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degree with a major in Philosophy.

Students also may major in Religious Studies, choosing between a B. A. or B.S. degree. . Pursuit of the B.A. requires proficiency in a foreign language.
