Program is designed for students wanting to complete the first 2 years of a bachelor's degree at the community college and transfer to a university to complete a BA in Philosophy. Students explore hidden meanings behind everyday life. Careers often require a master's degree or higher. Philosophy explores human ideas and problems, such as life, reality, values, knowledge, understanding, and language. It has many areas, and the content involves many places, cultures, and periods of history. This program introduces students to the field of Philosophy, and it includes courses that are common to all four-year institutions in Colorado. Career paths for Philosophy degree holders include law, government, business, science, teaching, and advanced university studies. The Associate of Arts (AA) degree in Philosophy prepares students to complete the second half of a Bachelor of Arts (BA) in Philosophy at a four-year university.
