We found that graduates in fields more exposed to AI have suffered markedly worse outcomes. Between 2022 and 2024 graduates in the least-exposed quintile—studying subjects such as education, philosophy and civil engineering—saw their average full-time employment rate fall by just 1.5 percentage points. Those in the most exposed quintile—including computer science, computer engineering and information science—suffered a 6.6 percentage-point drop (see chart 1).

We’re celebrating our Philosophy & Religious Studies majors as they take their next big step.

And we’ll never forget you.

On this Law Day, we recognize the power of the rule of law—and the thinkers behind it.

At Morgan State University, Philosophy students don’t just study ideas—they learn how to:
✔️ Think critically
✔️ Argue effectively

✔️ Prepare for law school and beyond
