Bachelor's Degree
Stanford's Philosophy graduate program ranks among the top globally by every standard. We enroll outstanding students, offer them extensive opportunities to learn from and consult with prominent scholars, and produce highly skilled philosophers prepared to secure top positions in a competitive academic job market. The department awards both MA and PhD degrees. Entry into the specialized Philosophy of Language track requires significant prior study in either philosophy or linguistics. Applicants with a linguistics background may need to complete some or all undergraduate core philosophy requirements outlined in the General Program section. Similarly, philosophy-focused applicants might need supplementary linguistics coursework.
