Karrierlehetőségek
Leading American universities’ statistics prove the fact, that philosophers with a PhD degree find jobs quickly after graduation. The range of possibilities is significant. Philosophers have the capability to recognize problems, to find the structure of data and aspects of phenomena, to discover hidden procedures which are not obvious for the first sight. Great companies employ more and more philosophers, as analysts or process managers. In great medical centres ethics professionals can find a job. In AI development companies there is a demand for logicians, epistemologists. Philosophers teach also in universities and high schools.
