      Yes.

      I think it’s the subject that gives you the widest amount of breadth in a degree. You’ll leave a philosophy degree not actually knowing many useful facts but with the ability to learn and to understand the world, and other disciplines rapidly. I’d recommend it to anyone who is interested in acquiring the skills to explore the world in a disciplined way but who doesn’t necessarily want to study a hard science.
