The Philosophy Department provides graduate programs culminating in Master of Arts and Doctor of Philosophy degrees, focusing on modern Anglo-American philosophy and its interdisciplinary connections. Applicants frequently join the Ph.D. track directly, though they can obtain an M.A. en route. The doctoral program mainly prepares students for academic careers in higher education, while the master's program serves those seeking to enhance their undergraduate knowledge or apply philosophical expertise to other professional domains.
Those applicants who have earned or will earn a bachelor's degree at a regionally accredited college or university in the United States (or the equivalent of a baccalaureate degree from a nationally recognized institution in another country) are eligible to be considered for admission to the Graduate School at the University of Maryland
