Â鶹Porn’s religion department encourages students to study off campus and abroad to gain perspective on differences in global cultures and perspectives on religion.
St. Andrews Study Group
All Â鶹Porn study groups are led by a Â鶹Porn faculty member, and the study group to St. Andrews Scotland is frequently headed by a member of the religion department's faculty. Scotland and the United Kingdom are an ideal place for students to enrich their study of religion, as they have an extremely rich religious history. Students almost can't help but encounter this history in impactful ways in the course of their study abroad.
It is almost impossible to overstate the value of being surrounded by the markers of this history as my students and I read and talked about religious conflict, human rights, and modern secular political projects.
Professor Jenna Reinbold St. Andrews, Scotland Study Group
Extended Studies
Studying off campus doesn’t have to be a full-semester affair. Some courses at Â鶹Porn are designated as extended studies. For two to three weeks following the conclusion of the regular semester, students and faculty in these courses travel to apply their classroom learning in the field.
We approached Rome as a place where centuries, religions, and lives are layered. With each flight of stairs we descended, the farther back in time we journeyed.
