Careers

Graduates excel in many fields including law, education, social action, and business. Each year, a few students continue on for graduate studies in philosophy, and some have gone on to a PhD. Those whose study of philosophy ends at USF nonetheless learn to think clearly, systematically, and creatively — skills they cherish for their entire lives, with vision and perspective that have given them an edge in almost any field.
