We are proud of the many accomplishments of our talented, nationally and internationally recognized faculty who produce groundbreaking scholarship and provide a superior educational experience for students in our two undergraduate programs (BALAS in Philosophy and BSLAS in Computer Science + Philosophy) and also our PhD program. Our undergraduate students are intellectually engaged, inside and outside the classroom, and are trained in methods of interdisciplinary study, strong critical thinking skills and written and oral communication, rigorous thought and reasoning, creative problems solving and deliberation.
