CAREER EVENTS

The Philosophy Department periodically holds Career Events where philosophy alumni return to campus and speak with students about what they have accomplished with their philosophy degree.  Students who attend these programs find the speakers motivating and gain a greater understanding of the importance that philosophy holds for their future career choices.
