The Religious Studies Program is designed to provide an interdisciplinary framework within which students can take courses to explore the nature of religion and its impact upon human culture, past and present.
Courses are academic in nature and non-sectarian.
Students must complete 18 hours of courses approved by the Coordinator of Religious Studies, of which at least 12 must be at the upper-division level. No more than six hours from a student's Major may be counted toward the Minor, and courses so counting may not be used to satisfy Major requirements. Brief examination of the world's major religions, followed by an in-depth study of one religion, such as Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, or Judaism. Course may be repeated for credit when main focus of the course varies. An advanced course in some aspect of Religious Studies.
