Religious Studies (Philosphy and Ethics)

UPDATED 20160719 08:42:31

The course comprises three components: Philosophy, Ethics and Christian thought. Throughout the course, students are encouraged to develop an understanding of the modern world and establish a deeper knowledge and appreciation of religious thought. They will study contemporary issues, whilst challenging and developing their own perceptions, enabling them to engage with a wealth of philosophical, ethical and religious concepts. The three components allow students to explore religious beliefs, values and teachings in light of their interconnections in both historical development and the contemporary world. The course examines some of the fundamental questions about life: why are we here; how should we behave; and what happens when we die? The course will suit you if you enjoy considering new concepts, debating ideas and working independently. It allows you to gain an analytical understanding of theories and doctrine whilst developing the skills required to formulate arguments in light of what you have learnt. Religious Studies is a rigorous academic subject and as such all universities, colleges and employers view it favourably. The content is particularly valuable for those wishing to study medicine, law, philosophy and politics. The skills developed will be particularly useful for careers in law, government and the media.
