Question by lalahappybunny: What can I do with a degree in metaphysics?
Metaphysics is a branch of philosophy. It is the branch of philosophy asking “what exists?” What entities form this universe? Metaphysical studies can concern difficult, perhaps unanswerable, questions bordering theology. Ayer, (1971) used the term “transcendent metaphysics” for proposals of existence beyond the observable universe. Like Kant, he denied them a part in logic. As used here, metaphysics includes any suggestion that something, not immediately obvious, does exist.

    You can levitate Mimes…it is great fun…they just hang there, gesturing wildly, but silently….nobody really notices or cares…

  • god1oak says:

    You can write a movie like The Matrix.

    And you can decide whether your degree really exists : )

  • Mithra says:

    A study of metaphysics, with or without a degree, will provide you with much more than one can imagine. It’s a study of relationships, seen and unseen, a study of creation/evolution, purpose, etc etc. If I might make a suggestion, give the Alice A Bailey books a look. If you’d care to discuss any concepts of metaphysics, feel free to email me at mithra_89@hotmail.com

    I graduated with a degree in Philosophy- with mostly classical metaphysics as a background. I worked on a sheepfarm, automotive- then back to school for grad degree and now I’m teaching Literature.

  • rockphilo says:

    Teach…

    Most of us who don’t go to law school or become a priest end up teaching.

    Is that all we’re good for?

    Well as a metaphysician, you can theorize about the job that is not immediately obvious to us, but does exist. But alas we are bound by the state of the job market to satisfy our immediate and base needs (food, shelter, clothes, transportation, et al.). You can always attempt graduate school, and a PhD. As a professor, you may not make a difference in the lives of your students, but you will have the opportunity to delve deeper in your understanding of the unobserved universe. You may even write, becoming the first truly brilliant philosopher since W.V. Quine. Or you could do as I did, and get an MBA, earn 6 figures, and enjoy the blank stares that people give you when you offer this quote from Kierkegaard, “People demand freedom of speech as a compensation for the freedom of thought which they seldom use.” Good Luck.
