Chair: David H. Nikkel
Faculty: Mordechai Inbari, Sharon Lea Mattila, Melinda Rosenberg, S. Brian Stratton, Ray K. Sutherland
Philosophy and religion have long been considered integral parts of the Liberal Arts Programs. The courses presented here are planned to give the inquiring student an introduction to these broadening disciplines, the means whereby the significance of various disciplines can be interpreted, and a way of viewing, understanding and resolving some of the conflicts and issues in modern culture. These courses prepare the student to succeed in a variety of jobs, to take an active part in community activities, and/or to engage in graduate study.
A combined major in philosophy and religion of thirty hours is offered. Minors of eighteen hours are also offered.
Students interested in majoring in philosophy and religion should discuss their interests with a faculty member in the Department. In order to help fulfill the aims of the individual student, courses are to be selected in conference with the student’s departmental advisor.
