Religion encompasses a intricate system of beliefs and practices (both moral and ceremonial) that convey a community's understanding of life's profound purpose. The scholarly exploration of religion analyzes how modern and ancient civilizations' convictions and principles influence and are influenced by social elements, time-honored customs, and unique modes of creative and literary output. Given the subject's diverse characteristics, the University of Pennsylvania's Religious Studies degree program allows students to customize their learning journey according to their personal and intellectual pursuits. Every undergraduate pursuing this major will consult with the Department Chair before declaring to outline their preferred curriculum and develop a personalized academic roadmap.
