Since philosophical questions are concerned with the nature of reality and knowledge and how we conduct our lives, philosophical inquiry leads to the investigation of other disciplines and areas of knowledge. A minor in philosophy is especially valuable for non-humanities and science majors and a natural choice for students in the humanities.
