A strong case can be made that science begins when philosophy ends. Hume and Kant prattle on about illusion and perception and along come neurobiologists ...

Good philosophy programs are extremely rigorous in terms of axiomatic thinking and logic. In fact, I suspect it's even better than (at least almost as good as) Computer Science in terms of teaching just pure raw logic.
I think that has a lot of value.
Another program with strong logic component is linguistics... like the raw study of linguistics.

Bacalao,
A lot of what you think of as logic was developed by philosophers.
