Faculty members specialize in history, anthropology, and sociology. Students benefit from small class sizes and professors who prioritize personal engagement. This major exposes undergraduates to key theoretical concepts in religious studies while enabling them to investigate these ideas through in-depth examination of sacred texts, historical developments, social frameworks, and cultural expressions of faith.
