This course is not about proving you are right, it is about deepening your appreciation of central arguments and trying to understand the views of those with different values and perspectives.

Some major topics and questions include: What are minds? Is the human mind a digital computer? Could a machine—e.g., a robot or a computer—be truly intelligent, or have experiences like humans and animals do? How does the brain “represent” its environment? In engaging these questions, the course also introduces students to foundational issues in cognitive science and artificial intelligence including: nativism vs. empiricism, mental representation, classical artificial intelligence vs. neural networks, modularity, evolutionary psychology, embodied cognition, and extended cognition.</p> <p class="card-title small text-center">This class fulfills the <br/> <b>Humanities & Fine Arts General Education</b> <br/>requirement.</p> </div> <div class="card-footer text-center"><small class="text-muted">PHIL 1030</small></div> </div> </div> <div class="col d-none"> <div class="card h-100"><img alt="Image for PHIL 1050" class="card-img-top" src="../_files/course-fliers/phil-1050t.jpg"/> <div class="card-body"> <h5 class="card-subtitle text-muted text-center mb-2">PHIL 1050</h5> <h4 class="card-title text-center">Introduction to Philosophy</h4> <h5 class="card-subtitle text-muted text-center mb-2">Philosophy, Technology, and Science Fiction</h5> <p class="card-text">Evil robots!

Can we provide adequate justification for any of our causal inferences? What is the foundation of human rights and moral obligations? This course explores the revolutionary ideas of philosophers in the modern period that continue to shape the contours of contemporary philosophical thought. <br/> <br/>In Western Philosophy, the Modern period (around 1600 to 1800) was a time of great scientific advancement, political upheaval, and philosophical progress. During this period, philosophers including Bacon, Descartes, Locke, Hume, Spinoza, and Leibniz wrestled with fundamental metaphysical questions about the nature of matter, causation, mind, and God, epistemological problems concerning the nature and grounds of knowledge, and ethical and political questions about our rights and duties. The philosophical work of this period provides the foundations for contemporary work in epistemology, metaphysics, philosophy of mind, philosophy of science, ethics, and political philosophy.</p> </div> <div class="card-footer text-center"><small class="text-muted">PHIL 3130</small></div> </div> </div> <div class="col d-none"> <div class="card h-100"><img alt="Flier thumbnail for PHIL 3210" class="card-img-top" data-bs-target="#modalPhil3210" data-bs-toggle="modal" src="../_files/course-fliers/phil-3210t.jpg"/> <div class="card-body"> <h5 class="card-subtitle text-muted text-center mb-2">PHIL 3210</h5> <h4 class="card-title text-center">Social Philosophy</h4> <p class="card-text">Topics will include: Robert Paul Wolff on Anarchy and Democracy; Jan-Werner Müller on Real and Fake Democracy; David Livingstone Smith on Inhumanity; Ethno-Nationalist Conflicts and Democracy and Peace Building; Evocative Objects, Neighborhoods, and Democracy; and many others.</p> </div> <div class="card-footer text-center"><small class="text-muted">PHIL 3210</small></div> </div> </div> <div class="col"> <div class="card h-100"><img alt="Image for PHIL 3220" class="card-img-top" src="../_files/course-fliers/phil-3220-philosophy-of-art-image-mashed-potatoe-monet.jpg"/> <div class="card-body"> <h5 class="card-subtitle text-muted text-center mb-2">PHIL 3220</h5> <h4 class="card-title text-center">The Philosophy of Art</h4> <p class="card-text">An inquiry into historical and contemporary philosophical perspectives on the making, interpreting and criticizing of works of art, including relations of the arts to other dimensions of culture.

How do language and culture shape our affective experiences? How do emotions and moods provide information about our relationship to the world? Under what conditions are emotions and moods appropriate or inappropriate? What role do they play in our reasoning and decision-making? What role do they play in our ethical lives? What role do they play in the arts (e.g., music, literature, film)?</p> </div> <div class="card-footer text-center"><small class="text-muted">PHIL 4240</small></div> </div> </div> <div class="col d-none"> <div class="card h-100"><img alt="Flier thumbnail for PHIL 4250" class="card-img-top" data-bs-target="#modalPhil4250" data-bs-toggle="modal" src="../_files/course-fliers/phil-4250t.jpg"/> <div class="card-body"> <h5 class="card-subtitle text-muted text-center mb-2">PHIL 4250</h5> <h4 class="card-title text-center">Limits of Consciousness</h4> <p class="card-text">We all live lives rich in subjective experience. And yet consciousness is often considered one of the most mysterious and unexplained features of our world. Limits of Consciousness examines the philosophy, neuroscience, and psychology of consciousness. Topics we may explore include: what is consciousness? What are different kinds of consciousness? Is there such a thing as unconscious perception? What are the major scientific theories of consciousness, and are they any good? Where is consciousness located in the brain? Are animals conscious? This class is an interdisciplinary inquiry into the nature of consciousness and whether and how science can explain it.</p> </div> <div class="card-footer text-center"><small class="text-muted">PHIL 4250</small></div> </div> </div> <div class="col d-none"> <div class="card h-100"><img alt="Flier thumbnail for PHIL 4260" class="card-img-top" data-bs-target="#modalPhil4260" data-bs-toggle="modal" src="../_files/course-fliers/phil-4260t.jpg"/> <div class="card-body"> <h5 class="card-subtitle text-muted text-center mb-2">PHIL 4260</h5> <h4 class="card-title text-center">Moral Psychology</h4> <p class="card-text">The growing interdisciplinary field of moral psychology studies our moral beliefs and decision- making processes using the tools of anthropology, psychology, philosophy, and neuroscience. Topics in the science of morality will include the moral-conventional distinction (the distinction between moral norms and non-moral norms such as etiquette), the role of reasons vs. emotions in moral judgment, the brain basis of moral decision-making, cultural differences in moral norms, psychopathy, and the development of morality in children. Psychology studies the nature of moral judgment using behavioral tasks. Neuroscience employs techniques such as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), and other tools for monitoring and manipulating brain processes to study “where” in the brain moral decision making occurs and the nature of these decisions. Throughout the course, we will examine how these empirical findings intersect with the ethical choices that we ought to make.</p> </div> <div class="card-footer text-center"><small
