RELIGIOUS STUDIES (Minor Only) |
|
|||||||||
| |
It is impossible to understand even our own Western cultural context without some detailed knowledge of the traditions, influence and rationale of its religious underpinnings. In light of that fact, a Religious Studies minor has been established to provide a focus for discussions of the ethical standards and the cultural orientations which have been fostered by various religions. It is also the objective of this program to provide a background in the religious beliefs of other cultures in order to give students insight into the basis of actions that otherwise might seem merely arbitrary. Religious Studies is an interdisciplinary course of study which has required one prerequisite course of three hours (RELS 120 Philosophy and Religion; or RELS 201 Religions of the World) and 15 upper-division credit hours selected from courses listed below. The student's selections will be made with approval of the director of the minor. RELS 120 Philosophy and Religion
