The Masters Program at Windsor
The Windsor M.A. program is small and offers the benefit of frequent and close contact with professors and fellow students. Our aim is to give our students solid individualized M.A. instruction--whether their intention is to continue elsewhere for a Ph.D., or to spend a year or two deepening their understanding of philosophy.
We have three avenues to the M.A. degree:
(1) four graduate courses plus a thesis;
(2) six graduate courses plus a major paper;
(3) eight graduate courses.
All students musttake the departmental seminar and pass a Masters examination which is based on it. We offer six graduate courses per year. Up to two courses may also be taken from outside of Philosophy, but this option is available only for students in the major paper or course-based streams.
We have faculty with research interests in Argumentation Theory, Contemporary European Philosophy, Epistemology, Ethics, Feminist Philosophy, Informal Logic, Metaphysics, Philosophy of Mind, Philosophy of Science, Rhetoric, and Social and Political Philosophy. Course offerings at the graduate level reflect the research interests of our faculty. |
