Philosophy Minor

Description

The 18-credit-hour minor in Philosophy is comprised of nine credit hours (or three courses) that provide the necessary foundation for advanced study in Philosophy (PHL 1000, PHL 2010 and PHL 1500 or PHL 2500) and are therefore required of all students who choose the minor. The remaining nine hours in the minor allow the student to choose three upper division PHL 3000-level or PHL 4000-level courses that explore those philosophical issues in which the student has the greatest interest.
