Bachelor of Arts in Religious Studies

A four year degree in the comparative and academic study of religion, covering world religious traditions, texts and belief systems, ritual and practice, the philosophy of religion and the role of religion in contemporary societies.

This differs from the biblical studies route offered alongside it: religious studies takes a comparative and analytical approach across traditions rather than concentrating on one body of texts. Religious literacy is quietly valuable in health, education, settlement and public service work across increasingly diverse Canadian communities.
