No more than 6 elective units from philosophy courses numbered 1005 – 3099. In consultation with the chair, philosophy majors are encouraged to include philosophy courses from study abroad in their elective category. Students with philosophy as a double major may complete the elective requirements for the philosophy major by taking up to nine units in non-philosophy courses that are related to the philosophy major. These customized non-philosophy elective packages need to form a coherent plan of study within the philosophy major and should be constructed in consultation with a faculty advisor; the plan of the elective package then needs to be submitted to and approved by the department chair.
