Overview

Philosophy from Assumption University helps students examine the history of philosophy by reading and analyzing primary texts in the areas of ancient, medieval, modern, and contemporary thought. Philosophy majors investigate fundamental questions in various domains of inquiry, including metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, and anthropology.

In so doing, they cultivate their capacity to read primary sources and secondary literature with understanding, to write essays marked by logical rigor and depth of insight, and to engage fellow students and faculty in thoughtful and serious conversation.
