Philosophy
Programs Offered
Philosophy (MA, PhD)
Overview
The Dalhousie Department of Philosophy fosters an active and engaged intellectual community both in and out of the classroom. Our students develop creative thinking, careful reasoning, and lucid writing skills. In Philosophy classes, you will learn to think deeply, systematically, rigorously, and productively about profound issues in life that affect us all.
Our Graduate Program is small and selective. There are typically six to ten MA students and four to six PhD students. Graduate students receive individual attention, and courses of study can be developed to suit individual interests. The atmosphere is friendly, stimulating and supportive, and there is a great deal of faculty/student interaction.
