SLU?s M.A. in philosophy is designed for students who want to broaden their philosophical knowledge through graduate studies without necessarily intending to pursue a Ph.D.
The Doctor of Philosophy program is designed to prepare students to enter the field of philosophy as teachers and scholars prepared to engage at the highest levels of philosophical discourse.
Courses in SLU?s philosophy graduate program examine historical as well as contemporary issues such as problems in metaphysics, epistemology, social and political ethics, and philosophy of religion, among others.
Two options are available for SLU?s Master of Arts degree in philosophy: thesis and nonthesis. The nonthesis program requires 30 credit hours approved by the chair, a minimum of 15 graduate credit hours, a minimum of 18 credit hours in philosophy (12 of which must be graduate) and completion of the review synthesis course (three credit hours).
