Earning a Bachelor of Arts (BA) involves completing at least 120 credit hours (typically 40 courses) over approximately four years. Throughout the program, you'll explore diverse subjects including cultural studies, historical perspectives, human relationships, and the societal and environmental factors shaping our world. This curriculum cultivates essential skills in critical analysis, problem-solving, and effective communication - vital competencies for navigating an evolving global landscape.
Philosophy delves into foundational inquiries about existence, knowledge, ethics, aesthetics, justice, consciousness, and language. This discipline seeks to comprehend the nature of reality, human relationships, and the fundamental principles governing thought and behavior.
At Memorial University's Philosophy Department, we foster intellectual growth by analyzing various philosophical responses to life's essential questions. Our approach emphasizes developing rigorous, systematic methods for examining reality and human experience through logical reasoning and evidence-based arguments.
