Can we know anything with certainty? Are there absolute moral values? What is human nature? What is truth? These questions deal with fundamental ideas in the sense that how we answer them has an impact on our beliefs and our actions. Learning to think carefully and critically, and to express yourself with clarity and precision, are some of the best skills you can learn at university, and the Philosophy department at Laurier is an ideal place to acquire these skills.

Our Philosophy program will encourage you to grapple with big and complex issues, and in doing so will help you develop as a thinker, actor, and citizen of the world.
