M.A. in Religious Studies

The graduate program in Religious Studies at UNC Charlotte is designed for students who want to pursue advanced studies in the academic study of religion while working closely with a distinguished faculty of scholars and teachers.  A Master of Arts in Religious Studies serves the following constituencies: those preparing for further graduate work in Religious Studies or other humanities disciplines at the Ph.D. level; those preparing for teaching positions at community colleges or for adjunct instructor positions at colleges or universities; those preparing for secular professional careers (e.g., journalism; foreign service) in non-academic settings; or those seeking to enjoy the intellectual rewards of a liberal arts education at the graduate level.
