The Department of Philosophy
The Department of Philosophy is home to a faculty whose research and teaching are recognized across Canada and beyond. Our members have published in many of the best journals in the field, have national and international reputations for their work, and have contributed to debates on a broad range of philosophical topics. We are sure you will enjoy learning from and with us.
We are a fairly small department, which means that we get to know our students very well, while working hard to help them succeed. Our students are able to participate in faculty research projects, getting first-hand experience with front-line research, and acquiring important research skills. We also have a funded, student-staffed Philosophy and Logic Help Centre, where senior philosophy students provide advice and support to students enrolled in philosophy courses.
The Department and the Philosophy Club organize activities and events every year, including talks from professors and graduate students as well as an annual Philosophy Undergraduate Conference where our students present their best work. Our undergraduate students have opportunities to give talks on their own papers and grade for our introductory courses, opportunities open only to graduate students at most other universities.
