Notes:
Students majoring in philosophy will design a program of courses with the assistance of a philosophy faculty advisor based on the student’s passions, academic needs, and future plans. A second major is recommended to complement the philosophy major. Moreover, students are required to design and execute a summative Departmental Thesis in which they are encouraged to explore areas of individual interest and to combine perspectives and methodologies in philosophy with those belonging to a second major area of study.
Students majoring in philosophy who intend to pursue graduate study in philosophy are advised to complete more than the minimum credit hours required for the major. In addition, these students are advised to complete coursework in German, French, or Spanish through the Intermediate level.
Graduating Seniors must complete a Learning Statement during their final semester at BW as a condition of graduating. The Learning Statement can be found on the Philosophy Majors and Minors Blackboard Organization. Students are asked to provide as honest an assessment of their experience with the major as possible to ensure the continuous improvement of the program. Feedback provided by students is anonymous.
