Welcome

The Religion and Philosophy Program offers a major in religious studies, and minors in religious studies and philosophy. The program provides a foundation for liberal education and prepares students to be citizens in a complex and pluralistic world.

Carroll alums who have graduated with a religion or philosophy background have gone on to careers in:

  • medicine
  • law
  • library science
  • ordained ministry
  • and many other fields

Graduates who study religion and philosophy acquire valuable career skills in: critical thinking, addressing ethical problems, working with cultural and religious diversity.

Students at Carroll often take courses in religion and philosophy to meet LSP requirements, out of personal interest, to complement other majors, or for career preparation. To study religion and philosophy is to examine ancient western and non-western traditions, to explore human experiences and societies, to learn how to think about human problems, and to prepare for living in the contemporary world.
