Philosophers study an exceptionally wide range of questions, using a wide range of methods. What unites the diverse forms of philosophical inquiry is their shared commitment to rigorous, analytic argumentation as a means of getting at the truth.
The philosophy department at Otago offers undergraduate courses in a broad range of areas; for current papers, follow the link above (and see also staff research interests).
Contrary to popular wisdom ("What are you going to do with that?"), the evidence shows that a degree in philosophy is excellent preparation for a variety of careers. See our careers page for more information!
