Religious Studies

Introduction

The Department of Religious Studies (REL) offers students an opportunity to explore and understand the religious traditions of the world, as well as to study expressions of religious life and thought that may not fall within traditional patterns. The program teaches a variety of approaches to religious studies. The department provides a major and minor and serves the academic interests of nonmajors who want introductory courses in religious studies or advanced courses coordinated with their special interests. Pre-professional students are encouraged to pursue religious studies as a major or double major.
