Philosophy Programs at Michigan State University

The Department of Philosophy at Michigan State University is one of the most distinctive and interesting philosophy departments in the country, one in which scholars with solid disciplinary knowledge and training make contributions to the discipline and address pressing public issues. These courses provide students with the intellectual resources needed to become critically engaged scholars and citizens with the ability to make social, political, and moral judgments. These programs are known for their close mentoring relationships between graduate students and faculty, a faculty committed to teaching and research excellence, and supportive rather than competitive relationships among graduate students.
