BA in Philosophy

The Philosophy major at The King’s College teaches students to ask basic questions about the human condition and explore answers through rigorous intellectual investigation. What is real? How can we know? How should we live? Philosophy majors pursue these questions and more, reading historical and contemporary sources both in and outside the Christian tradition. The Philosophy degree provides outstanding preparation for students who wish to pursue graduate work, including law school. It develops strong reasoning and evaluative skills that are valuable in any career. Our location in New York City, like Athens for Socrates, provides rich resources for reflection on the human condition.
