MA in Philosophy - Logic in College Park United States | University of Maryland, College Park

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 can join the Ph.D. track directly without an M.A., though they may earn one en route to their doctorate. The Ph.D. curriculum primarily prepares students for academic careers in higher education, while the M.A. program serves those seeking to enhance their undergraduate knowledge or apply philosophical expertise to other professions.

Our department boasts a vibrant research community specializing in logic and associated fields. Key areas of focus include artificial intelligence applications of logic, various modal logics (encompassing action, epistemic, and deontic systems), conditional reasoning, ambiguity studies, decision-making theory, collective choice theory, and the interplay between logic, meaning, and language philosophy. Students can explore these diverse research avenues and beyond. Faculty members specializing in these domains:
