BA/BS in Philosophy

Philosophy at St. Thomas More College, a federated college of the University of Saskatchewan, is offered as a Bachelor of Arts through three-year or four-year routes, alongside honours and double-honours options in the same subject. The program addresses fundamental questions about the human condition, with particular attention to continental philosophy, philosophy of religion, ethics, and ancient and medieval philosophy. As a Catholic institution, the college frames much of the subject matter around dialogue between reason and faith, and philosophy courses feed into the college's interdisciplinary Social Justice and Catholic Studies programs. This general Bachelor of Arts route gives students a solid foundation in philosophical reasoning and the history of philosophical thought without the additional research commitment of the honours track. It suits students weighing vocational formation or theological study, including consideration of Catholic priesthood or lay ministry, as well as those who want to build strong skills in critical reasoning, argument analysis, and ethical reflection as part of a broader liberal-arts education. Those skills carry into a range of subsequent paths, including further academic study, law, education, and ministry-related work.
