3.00 Credits
A critical discussion of leading theories and problems, including skepticism, the structure of knowledge and justification, and challenges to traditional approaches. Theory of Knowledge satisfies the capstone requirement for the major. Prerequisite: junior or senior standing.
-
3.00 Credits
A variable content course. Involves a critical examination of a broad topic in applied ethics-e.g. business ethics, bioethics, or feminist ethics-or a more specific theme, such as the ethical treatment of nonhuman animals or just war theory and pacificism. A total of 6 hours of credit may be earned, but no more than 3 in any one semester or term.
