Program Description
Philosophy and Religious Studies involve the examination of many of the most important thinkers and the most important ideas in human history.
In our classes, you might discuss the ethical views of Aristotle, the theology of Martin Luther, or early Buddhist religious texts, just to name a very few examples. Our classes also range widely over the vast expanse of contemporary philosophical and religious thought in such topical areas as modern religious apocalypticism, the nature of knowledge, and the role of women in Islam. This merely scratches the surface; we have many more ideas to explore together as we try to come to a better understanding of our place in the world.
