The Philosophy courses at UC San Diego will teach you about some of the most exciting attempts to find answers to life’s important questions, while also teaching you the critical and analytical skills to rigorously assess the cases that have been made on behalf of these answers.

UCSD Philosophy courses will also put you into conversation with some of the brightest and most creative minds in human history. Philosophy is an ancient discipline, whose name comes from the Greek words for "love of wisdom."

The Department of Philosophy also sponsors Ethics in the Public Sphere and the Philosophy Club.

Scholars study religion because we are fascinated by human beings. We seek insight into what people believe; what they desire from life; why they act as they do; how they understand and cope with calamity and suffering.

For this reason, a scholarly focus on religion fosters an understanding of the human condition as well as the history of human culture. The study of religion is a scholarly field dedicated to problems, questions, and frames for intellectual attention regarding how human beings inhabit their social and cultural worlds.
