The Department of Classics and Religious Studies provides graduate programs culminating in Master of Arts (MA) and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degrees in Religious Studies. The Religious Studies division approaches religious phenomena with the same academic rigor as any other observable human experience, employing historical, sociological, psychological, and anthropological methodologies.
This scholarly examination requires consideration of diverse religious traditions and their interrelationships within societies. Investigative work involves comparative analysis of religious expressions across different eras, treating all traditions with equal academic objectivity rather than privileging any single perspective.
The department maintains a non-normative stance toward all religious traditions in its research and teaching.
