I agree entirely. I majored in philosophy, as well as biology. I currently work in biotech.<p>The more useful of the two majors, even taking my career into account? Philosophy. Understanding the principles which govern the properties and flow of ideas&#x2F;arguments&#x2F;concepts is far more important than the particulars, which can be memorized and understood as needed.<p>The cliche is that philosophy teaches you how to think, and it&#x27;s true. Of course, philosophy isn&#x27;t the only way to learn how to think, but it&#x27;s a good primer.
