專業(yè)概況
在這里學(xué)什么?This major explores religion on a global, transhistorical scale, from the cultural world of ancient Christianity to the portrayal of Buddhism in contemporary American cinema. The department views religious studies not so much as a discipline, but rather as a field of complex encounters, bringing multiple perspectives — history, sociology, cultural studies, anthropology, and textual analysis — together on a wide range of religious traditions and practices. The diverse curriculum allows students to gain in-depth knowledge of particular traditions and cultures while, at the same time, learning how to read closely, think critically, and write clearly. Graduates tend to follow career paths similar to those who majored in other disciplines in the humanities and social sciences. Religion concentrators go on to careers in: academics, medicine and health professions, religious ministry and counselling, non-profit work, law, journalism, business, politics, and international relations.
Religion concentrators go on to careers in:

Think critically, write clearly, and argue effectively.
Evaluate the arguments of others judiciously.
Contribute to solutions of some of the most vexing problems facing human communities by analyzing complex social, historical, and textual phenomena thoughtfully and with nuance.

Develop a fluency in major world traditions, their core beliefs and practices, their primary spheres of influence, and their thematic and other continuities and discontinuities from the pre-modern past to the modern present.
Explore themes and issues that cut across the world’s religious traditions, such as ritual, belief, pilgrimage, canon, sacred, and asceticism.
