PHIL 3640

Course information provided by the 2015-2016 Catalog.

This course will cover various topics in metaphysics at an intermediate to advanced level. Likely topics include laws of nature (do they merely describe how the world happens to be, or do they prescribe how the world has to be?), causation (what is it?), and properties (what is it for something to be a circle or an electron?  Do two things that "are the same shape" literally share something in common?).


Prerequisites/Corequisites Prerequisite: two previous philosophy courses.
