<p>While Stony Brook is recognized mostly for its science programs, i know its philosophy department also excels in several areas of continental thought. As an interested transfer applicant, i have several questions....</p>
<p>How many philosophy students (majors) are there? How does this compare to other majors?</p>
<p>Do the philosophy faculty care about their students?</p>
<p>Do you feel that the (especially upper division) courses prepare you for graduate school? Compared to other universities? What graduate schools do most of the SBU philosophy alumni attend after graduating?</p>
<p>Thanks. :)</p>
