Honours BA Religious Studies

About this programme

Please note that admission to the Honours BA Religious Studies is suspended until further notice. The Honours BA in Religious Studies will give you a thorough training in methods used to study religion and will allow you to specialize in one of three concentrations within the program: Spiritualities and Cultures; Religion, Politics, and Public Policy; or Religion in Antiquity. For courses included in these concentrations, see the program requirements. You will learn how human religiosity intersects with other areas of human activity and will be able to think critically and comparatively about those interactions—a skill that is valuable in many areas of work. The program will qualify you to apply to graduate programs in the study of religion. Requirements for this program have been modified. Please consult the 2025-2026 calendars for the previous requirements. The electives may be replaced by a combination of a Minor, Microprogram(s) , and/or elective units. The number of units at the 3000 level can be reduced according to the number of courses already taken at the 3000 or 4000 level.
