PHILOSOPHY PROGRAM REGULATIONS
Academic Advising:
All students majoring in Philosophy or intending to declare a Minor in Philosophy will be assigned an academic advisor. Students should plan their programs in consultation with their advisors prior to course selection each term. Students planning to take a Philosophy course as an option are welcome to consult the instructor.
Either 34-110 or 34-112 is a good introduction to Philosophy in general.
AREAS OF STUDY
Most philosophy courses are intended for students majoring in other subjects who desire a well-rounded liberal arts education, as well as for philosophy majors. Students who might want to take more than one philosophy course are advised to check the prerequisites of courses numbered in the 200s and 300s. 34-110 or 34-112 are good introductions to philosophy in general.
