Philosophy, A.A.-T

Mt. San Jacinto College

An Associate in Arts in Philosophy for Transfer degree will fulfill the requirements for students to transfer to the CSU System as a Philosophy major. Logic and critical thinking courses provide students with an ability to analyze arguments, assess philosophical questions, and to read and think critically. History of philosophy and ethics classes guide students to an understanding of the central figures, questions, and themes throughout the history of philosophy. All courses seek to develop and enhance students’ abilities to think critically about texts and philosophical ideas and to articulate and defend arguments through both written and oral academic discourse.
