Philosophy

 

DESCRIPTION   [Top]
Philosophy is the investigation of reality, perception, morality, ethics, knowledge, aesthetics, and existence. Philosophical study involves the analysis, interpretation, and logical explanation of what individuals believe and value and how they seek to understand their world. There are many career opportunities with a Bachelor’s Degree (entry-level administrative positions in government agencies, business and non-profit organizations). In addition, many students go on to graduate school to study areas including law, the ministry, finance, psychological counseling, teaching, and diplomacy. UNCG offers a BA in Philosophy and a pre-law concentration. For more information on the Philosophy major contact Professor Gary Rosenkrantz in 216-B Foust, or visit the Department online at www.uncg.edu/phi.
