Philosophy and religious studies programs at MSU prepare students for a wide range of careers

When asked what they look for in job candidates, employers agree a candidate’s ability to think critically, communicate clearly and solve complex problems is more important than their undergraduate major. Graduates of MSU’s philosophy and religious studies programs are trained to read critically, construct logically tight arguments and express thoughts clearly through both speech and writing, giving them the skills to succeed in a competitive world.

Students at MSU may pursue bachelor of art degrees and areas of concentrations in the following:

• Philosophy
• Religious studies

A minor in philosophy is also available.

A degree in philosophy provides preparation for the entrance exams required for law, medicine, business, computer science and other graduate school programs because of the unique combination of critical thinking and writing skills students will learn. These skills are useful in any profession.
