Philosophy and Public Affairs


The major in Philosophy and Public Affairs (PPA) allows students to design a specialized course plan integrating philosophy with government and/or economics. This interdisciplinary major is housed in the Philosophy Department and offers students the chance to combine a philosophical knowledge of how society should work with practical information from government and economics about how society does work. PPA may be taken as a single major or as part of a double major. It may not be taken as a dual major, since it already involves interdisciplinary work in philosophy, government, and/or economics. Students who complete the full major in PPA may dual in other fields except government, philosophy and economics, since PPA already involves additional concentration in those areas.
