University at Buffalo Philosophy Programs

The University at Buffalo, Department of Philosophy are a mid-sized department offering courses in most of the subfields of philosophy. Students seeking an advanced graduate degree in philosophy will find rich course offerings, opportunities for research, and (unusually in the philosophical world) openings to well-paying careers in government and industry. A major in philosophy prepares a student for a wide variety of further academic and professional endeavours; it provides training in argument, and in the creation of powerful persuasive prose. 

The department is distinguished by its unusually wide range of special interests and orientations in philosophy, and by the high degree of faculty-student interaction both in scholarly enterprises and in departmental affairs.
