Studies in Religion (Dual Major), B.A. Four-Year Degree Map for Bulletin Year 2018-2019

The Studies in Religion B.A. is a dual-major. All students therefore must also complete a second major alongside Religion. That major can be anything you’d like. But, because there is a dual-major requirement, it is strongly recommended that students meet with the Director of the Religion program upon declaring their majors in order to customize their degree map to their unique program of study.

The four-year degree map is designed to help you take the right courses in the right order so you can graduate in four years. It also helps you distinguish what courses qualify as Pathways courses, or Major courses, or General Elective courses; and it helps you to customize your Pathways courses to your Religion major by giving you suggestions of courses that are either prerequisites for or great complements to Major courses.

Ideally, you should follow the four-year degree map as closely as possible, but you are free to make some adjustments so long as the prerequisite requirements are satisfied. There is a lot of choice in the Religion major, and therefore a lot of flexibility; but students should also remember that not every qualifying course is offered every semester they are at the college. Students majoring in Religion therefore should talk to the Program Director about when particular courses are scheduled to be offered in the upcoming semesters, both so they may plan accordingly and so that they can be better prepared to take the exact courses in which they are interested over the course of their four years.
