Religion, culture and society have long had far-reaching influence on educational, political and social issues. On this course, you’ll stretch your intellect and defy your prejudices as you explore the conflicting relationships between religion, culture and society - how relevant are the fundamental principles of many belief systems when applied to modern-day life? You’ll graduate with an understanding of religious culture and traditions from major UK faiths and how they interact with each other - and because you’ll study several subject disciplines, you’ll have a deep knowledge base to draw on in your future career.  2016 National Student Survey Religion courses at UCLan were rated top in the UK for student satisfaction for teaching on the course by students who completed the 2016 National Student Survey (NSS).
