Tutorial work complements formal instruction. Students may, after taking a balanced program, specialize in any of the following fields: the history of philosophy (from ancient to 20th century analytic), epistemology, metaphysics, philosophy of language, philosophy of mind, the philosophical foundation of cognitive science, moral psychology, normative ethics, metaethics, political philosophy, Chinese philosophy, philosophy of science, philosophy of biology, philosophy of social science, philosophy of law, philosophy of mathematics, and philosophical logic. Individual programs of study are developed for each student. Prior to being admitted to candidacy for the PhD degree, the student must successfully complete fifteen courses distributed among five subject areas and pass an exam on a Future Research Statement and a preliminary examination on the dissertation proposal. In satisfying these requirements, students are expected to demonstrate both factual knowledge and critical understanding. Work in a minor or related field, not necessarily confined to any one department, is encouraged but not required. If a student's dissertation is devoted to any considerable extent to an author, that student must be able to read the author's works in the original language/s. Reading knowledge is demonstrated by either (1) receiving at least a grade of "B" in French 2, German 2, Greek 2, Latin 2, or other language course that the Director of Graduate Studies has approved in advance, or (2) passing a departmentally administered translation exam. The Philosophy Department considers for financial aid only students seeking the PhD degree. Almost all philosophy graduate students at Duke are either in the PhD program or in a joint-degree program, such as the JD/MA and JD/PhD programs. In exceptional cases, the department may admit someone to a master’s program. A terminal degree of Master of Arts may also be earned by a PhD student who decides not to continue with doctoral studies and who meets the requirements of the Graduate School for the AM Such a student must pass an oral master’s examination, which may be the defense of a master’s thesis or an alternative academic exercise approved by the department. JD/MA and JD/PhD degrees are offered by the department in cooperation with the Duke Law School. JD/MA students must apply for admission to the Law School, and JD/PhD students must apply for admission to both the Law School and the Graduate School. Both kinds of students must combine relevant course work in philosophy with full-time work toward a law degree.
