Why Choose Comparative Religion?
Because religion is an integral part of human culture and society, a comparative religion minor is a fitting complement to any liberal arts discipline. Think of adding a comparative religion minor if you have an interest in religious studies that is not satisfied by your major subject. A minor in comparative religion will not only allow you to pursue this interest in greater depth, but also likely help you understand more fully your major subject.
