Religion (Program Major)

The Department of Religion at the University of Manitoba focuses on three areas of study: religions in the West (especially Christianity and Judaism), religions in the East (Islam, Hinduism, Yoga, Buddhism), and religion and culture. Method and theory is an integral part of the program. Courses are mainly tradition based or topics based. The University of Manitoba's topical courses are comparative, for example, dealing with death and mourning rituals in world religions.
