Departmental Mission

The Department of Philosophy & Ethics seeks to provide a context in which students can think critically and creatively about fundamental questions posed by human life and experience.  This is done through the four traditional disciplines of philosophy: Logic, Ethics, Metaphysics, and Epistemology.  Confident that the search for truth ultimately points toward God, we encourage students to participate in and contribute to the philosophic quest for truth, wisdom, and the meaningful life.  We seek to engender a reflective approach to life that produces integrity of belief and action.

In the discipline of Philosophy, students may choose
(1) the major in Christian Studies with an emphasis in Philosophy, or
(2) the traditional major in Philosophy
