What Can You Do With a Philosophy Major?

Just about anything!

Former Student News

Mike Goulet, 2015 NDSU graduate, will be creating and teaching an advanced high school philosophy class that will help prepare Alameda International Jr/Sr High School students for their future endeavors. Alameda International is an IB school as well as a Title 1 school. Most of its students are under the poverty level and many are English language learners. 

The class expands on the 9th grade government class covering Hobbes, Locke, Voltaire, Rousseau, and other Modern philosophers to provide students with a broader view of what philosophy is or what it can be for them based on the curriculum for.  The course, open to 10th-12th graders, in a chronological order, breaks philosophy down into its different facets, such as epistemology/logic/metaphysics/ethics.

Goulet is a secondary social studies teacher at Alameda International, Lakewood CO, Jefferson County Public Schools. He graduated NDSU with a B.S. in Political Science. After a yearlong alternative licensure program Goulet started teaching at Alameda, where he did his student teaching, and has been there for two years.

The Program

Whether it is about truth, knowledge, reality, beauty, or goodness, or about whether life has any meaning, people find questions to ask and try to answer. By means of dialogue, intuition, logic and critical thought, Philosophers have created pathways to wisdom and an understanding of the human condition that help us in our public and private lives to be better people living better lives.
