Description:

Take the first step to a career as a lawyer, politician, motivational speaker, writer and more with an Associate of Arts Degree in Philosophy. Philosophers ask the big questions, such as 'Why am I here?', 'Is there a God?' and 'How do we tell right from wrong?' Philosophy emphasizes thinking as a pleasurable end in itself and as a method of critical inquiry. This helps develop theories that enable us to understand the world and our place within it.
