Overview

Your professors have expertise in aesthetics, history of science, phenomenology and existentialism. Special topics courses range from decision and game theory, to metaphysics and epistemology, to the philosophies of fields across the liberal arts: science, art, medicine, language and more.

Philosophical subjects support any strong liberal arts foundation. Many students double major, combining their interests in the great abstract questions with a second discipline in the sciences, mathematics, arts or literature.

Career

Philosophy majors from Augustana College often pursue graduate study in philosophy or careers in law, journalism, the ministry or education. Augustana graduates have gone on to advanced study at some of the country’s best institutions, including Notre Dame, law schools at Harvard and Yale, and Princeton Theological Seminary.
