Philosophers! Anyone interested in the study of philosophy is invited to the UAlbany Minorities and Philosophy (M.A.P) social on Friday, October 9 at 3 pm. The M.A.P. e-board has put together a number of posters with information about what philosophy majors do after graduation. Refreshments will be served.MAPS social FALL15

Salaries of Philosophy Majors Over Time “ It’s not terribly surprising to see those graduates doing well in the labor market. We’ve seen quite a few executives—CEOs, VPs of Strategy—who studied philosophy as their undergrad program” – Lydia Frank, Payscale
