The Philosophy Department offers courses in major periods, figures, and texts in the history of Western philosophy, and the central areas of philosophical inquiry (such as metaphysics, theory of knowledge, philosophy of mind, ethics, social philosophy, and the philosophy of art). The Department makes a special effort to provide courses that establish links with other disciplines in the arts, humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences.

Students may elect a major or a minor in philosophy.
