BA in Philosophy

University of Cincinnati

Philosophy deals with basic questions, such as: What is knowledge. What makes something morally wrong. What is the mind. What is art. Some courses deal with the history of thought about such questions. Other courses deal with contemporary discussions of these questions. In addition, philosophy deals with a variety of questions that arise in the context of contemporary science and morality, such as: What is evolution. Can computers think. May doctors assist in suicide. Courses dealing with these sorts of questions are often interdisciplinary in nature, drawing on such subjects as biology, psychology and medicine.
