| Description | What is the nature of the human mind? What makes a just society? How can we lead a moral life? Philosophy has long been a central component of a liberal arts education - and with good reason. It teaches you critical reasoning like no other discipline. You'll explore enduring dilemmas of human existence, learn the fundamentals of formal logic, and apply philosophical reasoning to highly topical issues and current events. Through Waterloo's co-op program, you'll earn money, have access to North America's largest selection of co-op jobs, and graduate with up to 2 years of valuable work experience. | | |
