Program Strengths
UCI's Department of Philosophy is world-class and has particular strengths in three main areas:
History of Philosophy, including Ancient, Medieval, Modern and Contemporary Philosophy, both analytic and continental;
Epistemology, Philosophy of Mind and Metaphysics, pursued with analytic methodologies but open to the influences of the continental tradition;
Ethics, Legal and Political Philosophy, Social and Value theory.
UCI’s philosophy graduate program is jointly administered by the Department of Philosophy in the School of Humanities and the Department of Logic and Philosophy of Science in the School of Social Sciences. The graduate program as a whole is ranked among the top programs in the United States, and among the very best in a number of subfields of philosophy (see the Philosophical Gourmet Report). Graduate applications need to be addressed either to the Department of Philosophy, or to the Department of Logic and Philosophy of Science, depending on the dominant interests of the student. But graduate students have full access to all the courses and faculty of the two Departments. We have been able to place our Ph.D. students at well-reputed universities and colleges.
