PHILOSOPHY DEPARTMENT
Welcome to the Department of Philosophy at UW Oshkosh. The Department is located on the fourth floor of Clow Faculty in the heart of our scenic campus on the Fox River near Lake Winnebago. We offer a major and a minor in philosophy, and we are proud of our high quality undergraduate program. Our majors and minors are routinely accepted into the best graduate programs in the country, and many go on to pursue careers in law, medicine, and business. We are equally proud of the high quality scholarship produced by members of the department. Feel free to browse this site to learn more about our offerings, and about the people in the department. Be sure to read the latest news below. Feel free also to visit the Department, as its doors are open to all.
