Certificate of Undergraduate Study in World Religions

The Certificate of Undergraduate Study (CUGS) in World Religions is designed to complement and enrich a student’s major program, as well as to prepare students for graduate studies and professional careers. A certificate in World Religions will appeal to students who are interested in learning about diverse religions and the role they play in world events. It will help students to gain knowledge and critical training in the area of religion studies and acquire the in-depth understanding and appreciation of core aspects of religion’s impact upon culture. It will enable students to readily take those jobs that increasingly require the knowledge of religions in the areas such as media, the arts, education, government, health care, communication, public relations, and international affairs. The Certificate of Undergraduate Study in World Religions may be declared either in the Philosophy and World Religions Department in Bunce Hall (856-256-4075), Third Floor or with Christine Larsen-Britt (larsen-britt@rowan.edu) of the College of Humanities and Social Sciences Dean’s Office.
