Program Strengths

We have a large and approachable faculty (including eleven distinguished professers), whose collective expertise covers most areas of philosophy. Through our consortium arrangements, students are also able to take courses at and form networks with philosophy faculty at NYU, Rutgers, Columbia, The New School, Fordham, and Princeton. We have a legendary colloquium series that attracts faculty and students from all around New York, and we have a strong program of professional development that encourages students to present and and publish papers as preparation for the competitiive job market.
