Study of Religions / Ethics as subject in the Interdisciplinary Bachelors Degree Programme (Bachelor of Arts)

About

The study of religions examines historical and contemporary religions and secular beliefs in their respective social and historical context. The theoretical and methodological knowledge required is as much a part of the course as the critical examination of the history of ones own discipline. As such, the degree programme is highly diverse. Even at the introductory stage, students learn about the history of religion and scientific theories. The aim of research into the history of religion is to present the historical development of individual religions and ideological groupings. By addressing the history and theories of the study of religions, students gain methodological and theoretical knowledge that is important for comparing different traditions and exploring the question of the role played by religions and beliefs. In this regard, an important role is played by issues such as religious sociology and empirical research into religion. At the specialisation stage, students specialise in individual research areas to suit their interests. As part of the interdisciplinary bachelor's degree programme, students with a focus on teaching have to complete a non-school-based internship as well as a school internship, both lasting four weeks. The non-school-based internship helps students to get first work insights in the area of teaching, to check on their career aspiration. For students with an non-school-based focus, an eight-week non-school-based internship must be completed.

An interest in religious thought in other cultures
