O que eu aprenderei?

Course overview

How do ancient texts help shape people’s choices in the modern world? Is mindfulness a Buddhist practice or a Western therapeutic technique? Where does evil come from, and what should we do about it? What’s the connection between believing, belonging, and behaving? Do new religious movements present a danger to society? What tools does Christian doctrine provide for addressing the climate crisis? What does the Bible really say? Is religion a force for good in the world, or a source of conflict?

Questions about religion, faith, and spirituality are vital in modern, global society. A degree in Theology and Religious Studies equips you to understand the ongoing significance and meaning of religious perspectives in the contemporary world, as well as inviting you to think critically and constructively about beliefs, practices, and ethical concerns in traditions such as Christianity, Judaism, Islam, and Asian religions. Our programme welcomes and supports students from a variety of faith, belief, and non-belief backgrounds.

Teaching methods

Our delivery is vibrant, dynamic, and customised to meet the needs of our students and specific nature of our subject. While the exact details of delivery will vary depending on the content of a particular module (or even a particular session), most of your class sessions will be a mix of lecture, discussion, group work, and practical demonstration. Some modules may have specifically designated seminars, to facilitate discussion among a smaller group of peers. You will also have one-to-one tutorials in every module to help you prepare for your assessment. Teaching will be a blend of face-to-face accompanied by a smaller portion of online learning.

Assessment

The assessment on this programme is designed to help you consolidate your learning and develop key skills; the emphasis is on coursework rather than exams. In addition to essays, you are likely to write book reviews, text analysis, blog posts, dictionary entries, oral presentations, video presentations, research journals, workbooks, or critical reflections on your own learning. All assessments involve some element of independent choice, and are supported by formative activities, one-to-one tutorials, and feedback which highlights the next steps to enhance your achievement.

Work based learning

A key feature of the University of Chester’s degrees is the Work Based Learning period at the end of your second year. This gives you an opportunity to develop specific skills that will support you in your future career. You will have a choice from a range of practical and experiential modules, including:

  • Religious Education
  • Field Study of Religion
  • Enhancing Your Employability through Work-Based Learning
  • Introduction to TESOL/TEFL
