How will I benefit by taking courses in the disciplines of Philosophy & Religion?
First, each person’s understanding of reality is built upon their answers, consciously or unconsciously held, to basic philosophical and religious questions. Courses in the related disciplines of Philosophy and Religion give you the opportunity to explore these questions from different perspectives and to understand the answers of others. Secondly, you will have the opportunity to develop skills in thinking independently; in researching, analyzing, and organizing information; in generating and evaluating ideas, and in communicating written and oral discourse. Such skills are needed in most types of employment and are useful for life in general.
