This program examines the principles, methods, and major questions in classical and contemporary theology and ethics, situating them within the history of religious and ethical thought, especially the Western Christian tradition.
Students concentrate in theology, ethics, or religion and literature.
Coursework Students begin their work with a proseminar that focuses on classical texts, methods, and theories. A core curriculum in theology and ethics is approved by the faculty. Students in Religion and Literature should inquire about an exchange program with the Centre for the Study of Literature and Theology at the University of Glasgow, Scotland.
