DePauw is home to some of the leading scholars, artists and strategists in their fields. An impressive 99% of all tenure-track faculty hold a Ph.D. or higher, but it is their unwavering dedication to undergraduate teaching that sets them apart. With an uncommon commitment to exploration, collaboration and innovation, our faculty represent the best of the liberal arts tradition.
Leveraging the resources of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, the philosophy major and minor at DePauw are housed in the Department of Philosophy. This department encourages the careful consideration of the nature of the universe, humanity's place in it, the proper conduct of individual and social life and what we can know.
