Religion Program
The academic study of Religion at Berea College provides opportunities
to explore both the meaning and structure of religion, to develop
an empathetic perspective on a least one major religious tradition,
and to engage questions relating to important aspects of human
experience, culture, and ideas. Courses in Religion provide opportunities
to understand various dimensions of Christianity and other major
religions of the world, including sacred texts, practices, doctrines,
institutions, experiences, and ways of living.
The Religion curriculum, centered in the liberal arts, provides
a major and minor for students interested in a variety of careers
or vocations, offers non-majors introductory courses to explore
the character of religion in all its diversity, and complements
studies in other fields. Students in Religion have successfully
pursued further graduate study, entered the ministry, or addressed
social issues through law and other means.
