Religious Studies

If you think the aim of our programs is to make a priest or a nun out of you, think again! To understand the world in which we live and its various cultures, it is important to look at all the world's religions.

Our multidisciplinary programs combine history, sociology, psychology and anthropology, so the result is a rich mixture of perspectives on an array of topics: history of the study of religion, Amerindian religions, Asian cultural traditions, classical European cultures, religion in Canada, women and religion, and the relation
between religions and globalization.
