Research
In a broad sense, philosophy is an activity people undertake when they seek to understand the world and humanity's place in it. Those who study philosophy are perpetually engaged in asking, answering, and arguing for answers to life’s most basic questions. As an academic discipline, Philosophy pursues questions that have been of perennial interest to everyone. More details on some of our ongoing research projects can be found below.
