With the option to specialize in critical theory, students may apply for a fellowship to fund summer study at The School of Criticism and Theory at Cornell University, where they may further critique government systems and power structures. The program is possible through the flexible dual-degree program that allows students to earn master's degrees in two complementary disciplines, based on their interests and career goals.

Students who study Philosophy at the graduate level develop skills that make them invaluable to employers in any industry-they may learn to formulate and defend advanced positions, listen critically, write clearly, and analyze complex chains of cause and effect. With a deep understanding of contemporary philosophy and the major trends in the history of Western philosophy, students may choose to continue their education as academics or build careers in roles such as legal affairs, government, healthcare or business.
