Course Overview

This course is as much about engaging with a rich diversity of religious traditions, philosophical ideas, and ethical values as it is about examining the ways in which they shape and change the world we live in today. Youll study, critically and in-depth, the world religions, emergent spiritualities, philosophy from the Greeks to transhumanism, and ethical theories €“ not just as a way of understanding how they have influenced our past but their central role in our future. So we fully encourage you to look at how these ideas, beliefs, and practices inform and interact with aspects of contemporary social justice, the environment, politics, race, and gender.
