UVA’s BA in Philosophy equips students with the tools to examine fundamental questions about knowledge, existence, ethics, and human reasoning. Courses cover logic, metaphysics, philosophy of mind, political philosophy, and the history of thought. Students engage in rigorous argumentation and critical analysis while also exploring connections between philosophy and law, science, religion, and the arts.
