PHIL 29 Philosophy of Logic and Mathematics

Logic and philosophy of mathematics are ancient fields of study and have also flowered in recent times. Courses in this rubric study principles, results and methods of logic (whether in 'classical' or 'non-classical' systems) or philosophical issues concerning the interpretation of logic and mathematics (e.g., what justifies the rules of inference? what is mathematics about? what is logical or mathematical truth? what does a proof prove?). Emphasis may be historical or contemporary.

Degree Requirement Attributes

TMV

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
