The study of Philosophy can deepen and enrich understanding of a variety of other disciplines. The courses to be included in a Minor will vary from student to student, so it is important that students seek advice from the Department. A Minor in Philosophy requires at least five full-course equivalents in Philosophy, of which three or more full-course equivalents must be at the senior level.
Some examples of courses which would usefully supplement majors in various areas:
- Anthropology, Political Science, Sociology: Philosophy 249, 347, 449, 453, 565.
- Computer Science, Mathematics: Philosophy 201, 279 or 377, 379, 479.
- Greek and Roman Studies: Philosophy 301, 303, 315, 501.
- History: Philosophy 301, 303, 305, and upper-level courses on particular authors or periods, e.g. Philosophy 405 (see box preceding Philosophy courses of instruction in the latter section of this Calendar).
