Studying philosophy helps students develop skills that are valued by employers in many different fields. It especially enhances one’s ability to think and write clearly. Students learn to analyze theories, clarify concepts, dissect arguments and solve problems in effective and creative ways. This contributes to the development of students’ communicative powers, making any philosophy majors especially good candidates for opportunities in law, business, government, education, counseling, publishing, technical writing, mass communication, and many other professions.
