PHILOSOPHY
deals
with many issues such as the limits of human knowledge,
the different aspects of reality, the foundation of value,
and the nature of logic and correct reasoning. The study
of philosophy provides the highest level of training in
the analytical or reasoning skills needed by those pursuing
careers in law, teaching, government, and business. Philosophical
ideas can be applied to many aspects of life and experiences,
and therefore can be used in a variety of careers.
