Religious Studies

Course summary

Many ideas are more interesting than one. Religious Studies is a varied course that aims to capture the imagination and develop the enquiring mind. Intellectual curiosity is encouraged through challenging accepted norms and investigating the capacity of human reason and understanding. The approach is non-confessional, critical and academic, although students often engage with ultimate questions on a fundamental and personal level. The course has a traditional scriptural element to it, but much of the focus is on broader issues of ethics and philosophy.
