Why Religious Studies?
A grounded understanding of religious thought and practice is crucial to work in the fields of history, anthropology, political science, communications, and many other fields of work and study that involve community relationships.

About the Program
The Religious Studies Certificate Program offers undergraduates a framework within which to pursue the comparative and interdisciplinary study of religious phenomena in human societies across different cultures, places, and times. The Program draws on courses offered by many academic departments in the University and other colleges within the Five-College system.
