Philosophy (Minor)
Philosophy has been known traditionally as the queen of the sciences since it explores ultimate questions that other disciplines take for granted, such as “What is ‘the good’?” “Does God exist?” “What constitutes a just state?”. The study of philosophy enhances students’ capacity for critical analysis, stimulates independent thinking and promotes sound reasoning based upon knowledge, moral reasoning and religious insight. The study of philosophy is exceptional preparation for law, medicine, business and other professional programs. McMurry University offers a minor in philosophy.

Greek (Minor)
Following the fourth century conquest of Alexander the Great, Greek became the common language of the eastern Mediterranean world. It is not surprising, then, that all the texts that would become the New Testament were composed originally in Greek. A solid mastery of Greek will afford unique insight into these texts and will contribute to a solid foundation for any career in Christian service. Students at McMurry University can also fulfill their foreign language requirement by studying Greek; many who do so choose to minor in Greek. You can combine a minor in Greek with virtually any major.
