MA in Philosophy - Cognitive Science and Artificial Intelligence in Ann Arbor United States | University of Michigan Ann Arbor

The M.A. program caters to University of Michigan students enrolled in professional or academic programs outside philosophy who would benefit from graduate-level philosophical training. Admission is typically restricted to these students, with exceptions made at the discretion of the admissions committee after reviewing applications. Those wishing to transition from the M.A. to Ph.D. program must complete the standard application process and compete with all other candidates - no preferential treatment is given to current M.A. students. Accepted Ph.D. students may petition to have their M.A. coursework count toward doctoral requirements, though this isn't guaranteed.

Our faculty expertise spans traditional philosophical disciplines such as ethics, political philosophy, metaphysics, epistemology, philosophy of language, philosophy of mind, philosophy of science, and history of philosophy, along with specialized areas including feminist philosophy, decision theory, formal epistemology, legal philosophy, and philosophy of physics.
