We calling philosophy a science now? And the other comment is bringing it even further unrelated into art degrees...

Philosophy and science have historically always been intertwined. Many, MANY famous scientists were also philosophers, going all the way back to ancient times.

Without philosophy we literally would not have the scientific method.

Well, what do you think Ph.D. stands for? Philosophiae Doctor.

Philosophy isn't a science. Science is a philosophy. What do you think PhD stands for?

Philosophy is the soil from which science has always sprouted. Without philosophy, much of modern society would not come about.
