Key Summary

    About: The Philosophy program provides in-depth exploration of fundamental questions about existence, morality, and knowledge. Students engage with classical and contemporary philosophical texts, honing critical thinking and analytical skills. The curriculum fosters an understanding of diverse philosophical traditions and encourages the development of personal philosophical viewpoints.
    Career Outcomes: Graduates of the Philosophy program can pursue careers in education, public policy, law, journalism, and ethics consultation. They may also find roles in research, business consulting, or continue their studies in advanced philosophy or related fields.

Departments of the other Claremont Colleges and CGU are designed to cultivate critical thinking and to introduce the student to the history of philosophy, its traditional problems and subject areas and its connections with related subjects. In addition to preparing students for graduate work in philosophy, philosophy courses are a natural complement to the study of a wide variety of other subjects and can be relevant to preparation for careers in law, medicine and a number of fields involving the natural and social sciences and the humanities.
