Program details

Overview

This Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy provides broad training in philosophy through both the history of the discipline and discussion of contemporary philosophical questions. The 90-credit program develops critical thinking, logical reasoning, argumentation, textual analysis, and academic writing, and integrates contemporary perspectives, including non-Western and Indigenous philosophical traditions, alongside the Western canon. The program allows students to progressively specialize according to their interests while maintaining a broad grounding across the discipline's major branches. Students can complete the degree full-time or part-time, with new admissions in the Fall and Winter terms. The program leads to a Bachelier ès arts, B.A., and prepares graduates for further graduate study in philosophy as well as careers requiring strong analytical and communication skills, such as law, public administration, journalism, and education.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: Admission requires a Diplome d'etudes collegiales (DEC) or equivalent; applicants may also qualify via at least 15 completed university credits, relevant experience with philosophical reflection combined with a minimum age of 21, or an equivalent diploma obtained outside Quebec after at least 13 years of schooling. All candidates must demonstrate French-language proficiency through the Epreuve uniforme de francais, the ministere de l'Education's written French test, or UQAM's own written French test. No minimum grade average or cote de rendement is specified for admission.
