    • Annotation of the Higher Education Institution General information:
      The Master's degree programme “Religious Studies" provides you with a reflected access to the complexity of religious phenomena in the past and present in different socio-cultural contexts. The aim of the degree course is to be able to analyse the role and function of religions for the shaping of individual living environments, but also of collective affiliations and their significance for local and global conflict situations.

      Contrary to the assumption of a progressive loss of meaning of religions, it is very clear that religions are an essential element of social and political life even in the present.

      Research focuses:
      The Master's degree programme in Religious Studies enables specialisations in the field of religious cultures in Europe and Asia as well as in the field of Islamic cultures.

      The diverse facets of contemporary religious culture as well as the history and present of Islam, Hinduism or Buddhism can be possible focal points.

      Due to the minor subject selection in appropriately oriented neighbouring disciplines such as Islamic Studies, Indology/Tibetology or the social and cultural sciences as well as study opportunities in the Centre for Near and Middle Eastern Studies, Protestant Theology, Social Sciences and Peace and Conflict Studies, an individual focus and the acquisition of necessary language skills is possible.
