Concordia Benefits One of the fundamental benefits of studying philosophy is the awareness students gain from the influence of values on thought as they learn to analyze issues and problems. Philosophy is valued for its ability to develop skills and habits of mind characteristic of the well-educated person. Students learn to read complex texts carefully and insightfully, look for evidence of beliefs and learn how to evaluate their findings fairly. Students learn to write argumentatively and to value writing as a form of learning. Classes are small and taught by experienced faculty holding Ph.D. degrees from leading university philosophy departments. Some classes are team-taught, with faculty examining the same issue or topic from two distinctive points of view and different academic disciplines. Of students who start and finish their degrees at Concordia, 88 percent graduate within four years. View more details on Concordia College at Moorhead .
