The Department of Philosophy at Stevens Institute of Technology is committed to fostering a climate of free inquiry and intellectual stimulation by providing students with a forum where they can express their opinions, challenge beliefs, and exchange ideas in a productive and constructive manner. Our curriculum includes courses that examine both the history of philosophy, as well as such diverse topics as philosophy of science, aesthetics, political philosophy, ethics, existentialism, feminism, philosophy of language and cognitive theory -- just to name a few. Our dynamic and award-winning faculty represent a wide range of interests and expertise in the discipline, and are all active in the wider philosophical community.

The study of philosophy offers students the opportunity to reflect deeply on their chosen fields of study and assist them in gaining the kind of insight necessary to make significant contributions in their professional fields. We invite all students to participate in our classes and events and look forward to helping them achieve the most they can as students, scholars, professionals, and most importantly, human beings.
