You don’t need to be a religious studies major to take advantage of our faculty’s expertise. That’s why we created six new Focus Areas in Religious Studies. Whether you want to strengthen your resumé or follow your passion, these focus areas have something for every student at IUPUI.
In order to provide the flexibility that will fit with your interests, you may select one of six various focus areas. The focus areas and their corresponding courses are as follows:
“Religious studies broadens your perspective and teaches you to be more humane. The courses that I have taken in the department have dispelled a lot of the mystery and stereotypes that surround various religions and taught me to be more patient, sensitive, and imaginative.”
John is now a graduate student in History at IUPUI. His goal is to complete a Ph.D. in Environmental History at Harvard, Yale or McGill.
