FACULTY FELLOW

John Boyer, MA

My name is John Boyer. I am a Visiting Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Loyola University New Orleans.

My philosophical research interests include issues in philosophy of religion, philosophy of science, and philosophy of nature. I am particularly focused on issues of causality and explanation in the Aristotelian-Thomistic tradition. You can find my publications here.

Prior to coming to Loyola, I taught philosophy for six years at the University of St. Thomas (UST) in Houston, TX. I am currently a PhD Candidate in Philosophy at UST’s Center for Thomistic Studies; my dissertation is on Aristotle’s theory of causal explanation. Prior to this, I earned an MA in philosophy at the Center and a BA in liberal arts from Thomas Aquinas College (California).

In addition to teaching, I serve as a senior editor at Reality: A Journal for Philosophical Discourse.
