Bachelor of Science - BS in Philosophy Central Michigan University

Program Description

Explore fascinating questions about the nature of truth, free will and right and wrong. Develop the analytical and communication skills that are in demand in the workplace. As a philosophy student here, you’ll become a clearer thinker and build a strong foundation for any career. The study of philosophy trains you to think logically, argue persuasively, challenge conventional wisdom and solve any problem. That’s why philosophy majors score especially high on tests like the LSAT and the GRE. It’s also why they succeed at the highest levels of business, law, education and beyond. As entrepreneur and Shark Tank investor Mark Cuban said in 2017, “In 10 years, a liberal arts degree in philosophy will be worth more than a traditional programming degree.” You’ll work closely with top scholars with specialties in everything from moral psychology to artificial intelligence to human rights and environmental justice.​ In small, interactive classes, you’ll learn to form logical arguments and defend your point of view.
