Track 4: Legal, Political, and Social Studies

To assist philosophy majors both in focusing their programs of study and in better relating their studies to career objectives, the department encourages students to group their elective courses around the six programs of emphasis or "tracks," which will be reflected in a student's transcript and diploma.

Students are under no obligation to select a particular track; those who make no selection will automatically be assigned to Track 1.

Students in any track must still complete all courses required for the major.

This track is available for students planning careers in public affairs, law, management, international relations or for those planning graduate work in social or political theory. Students choose five courses from the following:

• PHI 3632 Ethics of Sex and Gender
• PHI 3670 Moral Conflict
• PHI 3930 Selected Topics
• PHI 4420 Philosophy of the Social Sciences
• PHI 4930 Topics In Philosophy
• PHM 3050 Ethical Issues in Death and Dying
• PHM 3100 Social Philosophy
• PHM 3300 Political Philosophy
• PHM 3361 Philosophy of Democracy
• PHM 3400 Philosophy of Law
• PHM 4340 Contemporary Political Philosophy
