description | This study aims to measure and evaluate the contribution of philosophy program of Kastamonu University’s Department of Philosophy to philosophy graduates’ private and professional lives. The study was made entirely of graduates who were reached and accepted the interview (77 of 110 graduates who graduated in 2013, 2014 and 2015, equals to 70%). This interview consists of twenty five questions in order to understand if having a philosophy major has advantages or disadvantages in their both private and professional lives. Most graduates complain about the difficulties they face during the job hunting processes. However, the percentage of those who cannot find a job in the private sector is relatively low. Difficulties, being experienced by the graduates of the department of philosophy, cannot be considered separate from the employment of the graduates of other departments in the Faculty of Arts and Sciences. As the study suggests, the graduates of philosophy department have been successful and preferred staff in their jobs. This study has confirmed the assumption that “minds that are not limited within the narrow boundaries of a profession” can be successful in their private and professional lives. |
