Bachelor of Arts [B.A] [Philosophy] From Drury University

Courses in philosophy and religion thus are oriented towards helping students discover and develop their most fundamental views ? their worldview and the knowledge of self. As such, courses in philosophy and religion are essential to liberal arts education, and to the exploration and definition of who we are as human beings.?The department is distinctive in its focus on the practical application of philosophical and religious studies.
Philosophy develops tools for critical inquiry, explores how knowledge is acquired, and examines how diverse forms of knowledge (e.g., scientific, humanistic, religious) both conflict with and complement one another. Philosophy further examines the nature of values and how diverse values define ethical, political and religious beliefs.?
