Philosophy delivers highly marketable, highly transferable skills. If your ideal career requires thinking, talking or writing, a major in Philosophy will help prepare you. Philosophy strengthens your ability to organize ideas and issues and to draw reasonable, workable and justifiable conclusions from complex information, beliefs or data. Students who major in Philosophy examine basic principles of reality, knowledge and language as they affect all thought - such as change and permanence, knowledge and belief, unity in diversity, and the meaning of goodness, value, truth or beauty.
