The Philosophy program at Carleton University develops the ability to assess ideas, appreciate multiple perspectives, and think clearly, creatively and critically. Coursework builds writing, research, analytical and oral presentation skills and covers moral, social and political philosophy; philosophy of mind, cognitive science, language and knowledge; and the history of philosophy. Classes are taught in small sections by faculty active in current philosophical research. Students may pursue a concentration in Ethics and Public Affairs, and fourth-year seminars allow study in faculty members' specific research areas.
