Philosophy of Religions, Minor

Minor in Philosophy of Religions (360001M)

The Philosophy of Religions Minor allows students to reflect on their values and beliefs and to seek answers to questions on topics about morality, truth, humanity, and God. Religion permeates many aspects of life, and so the interdisciplinary nature of this program allows students to incorporate designated courses from other disciplines, such as Classics, Anthropology, English, and History, to meet some of the requirements.
