Investigate the rich tapestry of human belief with a religious studies summer program. These programs, typically hosted by colleges and universities, offer pre-college high school students a chance to explore the vast, fascinating world of religion.
Learn about the history, rituals, and sacred texts of Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism, Shinto, Sikhism, Taoism, and other traditions. Instructors with deep knowledge of theology will guide you through religious and secular texts and foster lively group discussions and personalized instructions.
Participating in a religious studies summer program encourages curiosity, empathy, and respect for diverse viewpoints. You’ll gain a stronger understanding of the world’s major religions and learn about the fascinating variations within each tradition.
