Liberal Arts

 Philosophy  Concentration


Philosophy has always been considered an important, even necessary, component of  a liberal arts education. Combining critical thinking with a broad range of questions  probing the range of human thought whether scientific, humanistic, or artistic, and sporting some of the finest literature ever written, it provides students with an irreplaceable and essential window on the full range of what we term the "liberal arts." Kingsborough Community College now offers a broad range of philosophy courses covering all sorts of issues from religion to bioethics and from a broad range of perspectives including Asian and contemporary analytic as well as the traditional ancient Greek and modern European.
