Philosophy touches our lives every day—in the decisions we make for ourselves, in our interactions with loved ones and acquaintances, in our art and music, in our use of technology and more. At Muhlenberg, philosophy students delve deeply into the ideals, questions and assumptions that form the threads of our social fabric and inform our daily lives. Faculty and students work together to make sense of the world, ourselves and our relations with others.
This process generates vast knowledge and capacities. They include writing clearly, speaking persuasively, thinking creatively, analyzing competing claims and solving problems in innovative ways. These sought after skills are applicable to a great breadth of fields including law, medicine, business, government, education, finance, theater and more.
