Religion and theology
Short courses for the public
No one can doubt the social significance of religion in today’s world, and the value of gaining an understanding of world religions and religious traditions, and of the social and cultural contexts for religious belief and practice.
Many of our courses can be studied for credit which means they can count towards a recognised qualication.
