Popular Religious Culture in America Minor

Coordinator: 

This program is designed to facilitate the study of the religious culture and atmosphere of the United States. This minor will allow students to have a greater and more precise understanding of the underlying religious culture that permeates American society, thereby allowing students to apply said understanding to American society at large and in many different career paths after graduation. The interdisciplinary approach will allow knowledge from several different disciplines to enhance and further the goal of understanding religion in a society that is not only religiously plural but also tends toward a “homogenization” or “Americanization” of spiritual thought and practice.
