Students may work out individualized programs in consultation with faculty advisors. Some students pursue a double major in religion and another discipline, an option encouraged by the Department. Students who are majoring in some other department of the University may pursue a minor in religion. The minor includes a distributional requirement at the lower-division level and additional courses selected in consultation with faculty advisors. A limited number of Ethel Evans Department of Religion Scholarship awards are available to students majoring in religion.
Preference is given to senior students.
Although financial need may be considered in the granting of these scholarships, primary emphasis is given to general academic achievement and to academic excellence within the Department of Religion. There are also other opportunities for students in the Department to meet with departmental faculty for both academic and social purposes.
