The Philosophy Department at the University of Chicago offers exceptionally broad and deep programs in western philosophy at the doctoral and baccalaureate levels, in a lively, congenial, and intellectually stimulating atmosphere.

Chicago is distinctive among American universities in having more graduate students than undergraduates in a way that is advantageous to both groups.
