BA in Religion, Society and Culture

You will engage with the comparative study of religion, especially with the significance of myth-, ritual- and meaning-making. This is complemented by more specialized modules that explore religious practice in relation to either particular religions (such as Islam, Judaism, and Christianity), particular regions (such as Asia, Africa, and Europe), or particular transnational media (the internet, film, and literature). You will engage with the role of religion in a wide range of contexts: including politics, literature, bioethics, and war. Students on this degree will benefit from the considerable strength that the Department has in the comparative study of religion, the social sciences and the study of religious texts/artifacts.
Graduates of the degree will be highly employable in a range of professions including the civil service, education, research, and social work.
The degree enables you to understand better the world we live in and to explore the forces that shape your own attitudes, hopes, and fears. In turn, it will empower you to go out into the world to make a difference for the good.
