Religion MA

Course offerings and thesis direction are available at both universities.  Students in the program can choose between two streams: Thesis Option (coursework plus thesis) or Course Option (all coursework).  In both streams the student is required to demonstrate reading knowledge of a second language.  In the Thesis Option, this reading knowledge normally must be demonstrated before the thesis proposal is reviewed.  As well, students must have completed courses in Methodology from a recognized university/college, or take this type of training in addition to their regular coursework in the MA program.

Students completing the Joint MA Program in Religion will receive a joint parchment and may choose to graduate from either of the participating universities.

Admission Requirements

An Honours or 4-year BA degree in Religion or Religion & Culture with a minimum grade point average of 3.0 in the last 60 credit hours.  Other relevant degrees will be considered.
