Overview:
The Program in Religious Studies explores religious practices as important aspects of social life. The program includes three related approaches: examination of primary texts and artifacts; analysis of the ideas and activities that have contributed to the development of various religions; and interdisciplinary exploration of the theories and methods used in the study of religion.
