Welcome to the Department of Philosophy

We are a community of philosophers with an expansive vision and an outward focus. We aspire to practice "engaged philosophy," believing that our discipline has vital contributions to offer all areas of inquiry. Through our teaching and research, we foster interdisciplinary conversations and bring philosophical tools and methods to bear upon problems and topics of public interest.
