Religious and Cultural Studies is an academic course that explores the beliefs, practices, traditions, and worldviews of various religious and cultural groups across the globe. It provides a multidisciplinary approach to understanding how religion and culture shape human experience, influence societies, and contribute to identity formation. The course typically examines both historical and contemporary perspectives, drawing from anthropology, sociology, philosophy, history, and theology to analyze religious texts, rituals, symbols, and ethical systems. Students are encouraged to engage critically with diverse traditions, fostering intercultural understanding and respect. The course also explores the dynamic relationship between religion and culture, including how they interact with politics, economics, education, and social change. Through comparative study, students gain insights into the roles that religion and culture play in both uniting and dividing communities, and how they impact global and local issues.
