The Philosophy Department currently has 13 full-time faculty members (and two emeritus members) with specialties ranging from ancient to recent philosophy, Plato and Aristotle, through Spinoza and Kant, to Kripke and Lewis. In addition to our specialists in social-political philosophy and applied ethics, we offer particular expertise in the region of analytic thought where issues in metaphysics, epistemology, and the philosophies of mind, language, and science come together.
