Program details

Overview

Philosophy examines basic questions about truth, sound reasoning, morality, beauty, justice and reality. Sacramento City College uses the subject to strengthen critical thinking and preparation for work in education, law, medical ethics, public service, publishing and social work. The philosophy transfer degree (AA-T) prepares students for baccalaureate philosophy programs at a California State University. It supplies essential lower-division work and a broad choice of electives, while building skills such as reading demanding texts and writing clear arguments. Learning outcomes include comprehending texts at literal and inferential levels. Students combine the major courses with the Cal-GETC pattern, and the degree can also support later graduate work in many academic disciplines. Prospective students are encouraged to meet with a counselor early to plan their courses, confirm transfer expectations and map out a realistic timeline for finishing.
