Description

A minor in Philosophy is your intellectual toolkit for success. It goes beyond memorization, teaching you to analyze arguments, clarify complex ideas, and develop a coherent personal worldview. You’ll dive into the fundamental concepts and controversies that have driven human culture for centuries. By mastering both Logic and Ethics, you gain a powerful foundation for making informed decisions, critically evaluating information, and constructing sound, persuasive arguments.
