Overview

Religious Studies at Towson University, as an academic endeavor, focuses on varied religious traditions that figure prominently in the development of human culture. This program’s faculty also theorize about the phenomenon of religion itself, abstracting from concrete manifestations and subjecting ideas to explanation and evaluation. Both orientations reveal religion to be complex and multifaceted by nature.

Key Features

Through coursework, you will investigate religion from its psychological, sociological, anthropological, artistic, ethical or metaphysical dimensions. Whether you consider yourself a religious person or not, this major allows you to think more broadly and critically, write more clearly, and be more thoughtful in your discussion of the world. The program prepares students for advanced degrees or any career path in which detailed cultural knowledge is an asset, including education, nonprofits, diplomacy, law and business.
