Interreligious Studies is an interdisciplinary field that 1) critically engages questions of religious, spiritual, and secular identities, 2) examines how people orient around religion differently, and 3) engages the implications of these interactions for communities, civil society, and global politics. The certificate integrates classroom learning and experiential activities for students to help them develop the theoretical and practical skills necessary to meet the challenges of a complex and dynamic world.
