As ethics become increasingly crucial across the computing industry, a key question emerges: what specific philosophical skills are necessary for computing professionals? One relevant perspective on this question comes from academic philosophers, who are experts in ethics and other pertinent philosophical disciplines. Accordingly, this paper explores it through a survey of 151 academic philosophers, who provide insights on the philosophical education needed in the field of computing. The findings suggest a strong consensus for a philosophy curriculum that emphasizes ethics and critical thinking. However, opinions vary on the extent of ethical knowledge required. This study delves into these perspectives and their implications for the ethical training of computing professionals.
