Admission Requirements
All students earning the M.A. in philosophy will

Program Description
The cooperative M.A. program in philosophy,
offered by Washington State University in
Pullman, Washington, and the University of Idaho
in Moscow, Idaho, leads to a general master of
arts degree in philosophy. Students also have the
option of concentrating in environmental
philosophy or ethics. Students work with faculty
members from both departments and thus are able
to take advantage of a strong overall program
with a wide variety of faculty research
specializations. The two universities are just
eight miles apart, and free public transportation
between them is available.
The program offers course work in the major areas
of philosophy such as ethics, metaphysics,
epistemology, philosophy of religion, philosophy
of language, and history of philosophy, as well
as in more newly developed areas such as
environmental philosophy, feminist philosophy,
and applied ethics.
