Student for a Day: Religious Studies

Are you considering studying Religious Studies because you want to know more about the role of religion in culture and society? Do you want to get a better picture of the study programme? Come and visit us at Student for a Day!

In many national and international social and cultural issues, religion plays an important role. Sometimes, this is very visible, for instance in the case of religious extremism. However, it can also be less obvious. There are cases in which we barely recognize the influence of religion in societal phenomena, although on closer inspection, religion is very much present. Examples of such cases are sexual health and climate change. Religions continuously play an important role in how we live together, both in a conscious and in a subconscious manner.

During the Student for a Day event, you attend trial lectures of courses offered within the programme, so that you can find out what to expect from the content of Religious Studies. The day also gives you an opportunity to get a taste of student life at the faculty . Of course, there is plenty of time throughout the day to ask students and teachers whatever you want to know about Religious Studies. The Student for a Day event is free, including lunch.
