Any course with a PHL prefix may be counted as a philosophy requirement. In addition two courses that fit both of the following criteria may be counted toward the philosophy major.
- The course is deemed to have a strong philosophical content and/or methodology as determined by the chair of Classics, Philosophy, and Religious Studies
- The course is either REL 102, World Religions, or is an upper level course in Religion, Political Science, Environmental Studies, English, Psychology, or Sociology/Anthropology.
Majors must earn a grade of C or better in all courses used to satisfy major requirements. Philosophy majors who intend to pursue graduate study in philosophy are strongly advised to take at least two courses in a foreign language in which there is a significant body of philosophical literature. Such a major's choice of foreign language should be discussed with a member of the department.
