Philosophy
The philosophy curriculum at Concordia is based on the mission statement of the
University. Philosophy is one of the fundamental disciplines in academia. It is that discipline
which studies the most basic issues, and which also ties together the other disciplines.
It is good for sharpening thinking skills, and for giving students an understanding of the
ideas that move society. The American Philosophical Association guidelines for philosophy
majors emphasize that there are four different models for the teaching of philosophy: The
historical model, the field model, the problems model, and the activity model, all of which
we utilized in the Concordia philosophy minor.
