Applied Religious Studies

The Teaching Religion Unit and the Applied Religious Studies Committee will co-host a conversation about how programs navigate teaching the study of religions while integrating applied objectives (e.g. NACE career readiness competencies: https://bit.ly/2PoIPWK) into undergraduate and graduate curriculums. We welcome faculty in programs with an applied focus or in departments considering an applied approach to discuss program origins, faculty development, curriculum, student outcomes, benefits, and challenges.
