Religious Studies

For more than 20 years, the Religious Studies Program at UW–Madison has engaged in teaching and research that uses critical methods from the humanities and social sciences to approach religion as a transhistorical and global phenomenon that exists within and beyond religious traditions. Our faculty and students ask questions that get to the core of what matters, and how it comes to matter, to human lives. Your gift of any size ensures that the program continues to flourish for decades to come, offering current students the same interesting classes, keynote lectures, and well-earned celebrations that made you value your time in the Religious Studies Program.
