Northwestern’s Philosophy BA trains students to dissect arguments, challenge assumptions, and articulate nuanced perspectives on enduring questions—free will, justice, consciousness, and meaning. Seminars range from ancient Stoicism to contemporary feminist epistemology, while logic labs hone formal reasoning. Interdisciplinary tracks pair philosophy with AI, economics, or environmental studies, and public-philosophy workshops bring debate to Chicago schools and cafés. Graduates excel in law, policy analysis, tech ethics, and graduate humanities research.
