Program Design: Clusters
ICS offers masters and doctoral programs in
interdisciplinary philosophy. These programs explore connections between
philosophy and other fields of study. They also emphasize the social and
cultural implications of academic work.
Our programs have an innovative design.
Unlike graduate programs that emphasize the distinct subdisciplines of
philosophy, ours gather courses into six interdisciplinary clusters. Each
cluster serves as a major or concentration, within which students find their
own pathways of study. A brief description of the six clusters follows.
Aesthetics,
Hermeneutics, and Philosophy of Discourse
Courses on the arts, culture, language,
rhetoric, and interreligious dialogue.
Anthropology
and Ethics
Courses on community, ecology, embodiment,
gender, and social critique.
History
of Philosophy
Courses on medieval, modern, and
contemporary thought, with special attention to Aquinas, Kant, Hegel, Marx,
Nietzsche, Heidegger, Wittgenstein, Dewey, and Arendt, as well as to feminist
philosophy, French phenomenology and deconstruction, Reformational philosophy,
and Critical Theory.
Knowledge,
Truth, and Learning
Courses on education and schooling,
epistemology and metaphysics, and faith and philosophy.
Social
and Political Philosophy
Courses on civil society, cultural
pluralism, democracy, empire, feminism, globalization, and faith and politics.
Theology
and Biblical Studies
Courses on theological aesthetics and
hermeneutics, Christology and eschatology, spirituality and worship, and faith
and culture.
