Philosophy Department
For centuries, people have
searched for answers to their questions regarding the
origin and meaning of life, the nature of the world,
individual rights and social obligations, ethical ways
of behavior, logical thinking, and the existence of
God. Philosophy is the field of study that examines
these and similar questions through dialogue and thought;
the history of these questions; and the answers proposed
by many famous philosophers.

its analytical perspective.
