Graduate Placement
The terminal degree Masters program in Philosophy with a concentration in ethics and science studies began in the fall 2008. The department actively assists graduates of the program in their search for employment or further education. Some of our graduates have elected to pursue a Ph.D. in philosophy, while other graduates have gone on to use the skills in a variety of academic and non-academic professions.
Some students who have received a B.A. in Philosophy from Â鶹¹ÙÍø have been admitted to graduate programs in Philosophy at Columbia University, George Mason University, Purdue University, the University of Hawaii at Manoa, University of Miami, University of Nebraska, University of New Mexico, University of Texas at Austin, and the University of Wyoming.
