Strengths Continental Philosophy. History of Philosophy.

Other Info The Department of Philosophy at Duquesne University was one of the first graduate programs in the United States to specialize in phenomenology and, more broadly, nineteenth and twentieth century continental philosophy. Our program remains committed to this tradition and focuses on post-Kantian European philosophy. We also integrate a broader emphasis on research in the history of philosophy, both as the necessary background for work in later continental thought and as a program focus in its own right. Please note that our terminal-MA program operates in tandem with our PhD program. While fellowship or grant stipends are not available to our MA students, we do provide partial tuition remission (usually ranging from one-third to half the cost of tuition). Also, we offer a wide range of support for language study: all ancient Greek, Latin, French, and German courses at the University are tuition-free for all philosophy graduate students, and we provide summer grants for our MA students to pursue in-country intensive language study abroad between their first and second years in the program. By fall 2014 we should have 14 tenured or tenure track faculty in the department (we are now hiring for fall 2013 and are likely to add an additional line the following year). Finally, please see our program website for additional information regarding our successful record placing our MA students with funded positions in PhD programs.

Strengths The "focus" of San Jose State's Department of Philosophy is on diversity. Thus, traditional areas of philosophy are well covered, along with many other areas. The latter include: Feminist Philosophy; African and African-American Philosophy; Buddhist Philosophy; Japanese Philosophy; Chinese Philosophy; Latin American Philosophy; Indian Philosophy; Gender Studies; and (in keeping with out setting in Silicon Valley), various perspectives on science and technology. Both traditional and other areas are reflected in the department curriculum and in faculty areas of interest (www.sjsu.edu/philosophy/contact/). In terms of professional activity (research, publication, consulting, etc.), outside reviewers have found the department to be notable nationally, to be among the top within the campuses of the California State University system, and to compare favorably with public and private PhD granting universities in the region.

Other Info The department includes a Center for Comparative Philosophy (www.sjsu.edu/centercomphil/). In terms of professional activity (research, publication, consulting, etc.), outside reviewers have found the department to be notable nationally, to be among the top within the campuses of the California State University system, and to compare favorably with public and private PhD granting universities in the region. MA recipients do well in moving on to Ph.D. programs, finding positions at community colleges, or pursuing other graduate education

There is a weekly workshop for graduate students. Students and faculty working in philosophy of biology meet in a weekly "lab." There is also a discussion group called "DaGERS" for students and faculty working in moral philosophy. In addition, given the college town atmosphere, there are many opportunities for informal interaction between students and faculty.

All courses are offered in the evening to service our increasing number of working part-time graduate students. In the past 5 years, about 2/3 of our MA graduates seeking further graduate study have won seats in a variety of programs (e.g., philosophy, law school, religion, psychology, etc.). With our program's emphasis on developing good pedagogy, our MA students have an excellent track record of teaching as adjunct instructors at various institions in the Greater Philadelphia region.
