2006: Philosophy and Computer Science

How has being a Philosophy graduate from Duke helped shape you personally and/or professionally?

"Duke's philosophy program offered me an introduction to philosophy being done at the highest level—one which prepared me well for a PhD program and ultimately a career in the discipline."

What advice would you give students in Duke's Philosophy programs? 

"Take advantage of all of the opportunities that you have at Duke: Get to know the amazing professors and graduate students in the Philosophy department; pursue opportunities for independent and collaborative research; and take courses that challenge you and expand your worldview!"
