Religion

Active Learning

World Religions courses at Camosun look at a number of global religious traditions that cross national, cultural, and geographical boundaries, and how they address issues like:

• What do more than half of humans mean when they say they are Christian, Muslim, Buddhist or Hindu?
• What, in each of these religious traditions is meant by ‘fundamentalism,’ and why does it have a bad reputation?
• What is the difference between ‘organized’ and ‘popular’ religion?
• Why do people get so passionate about saying they are ‘religious,’ ‘atheist,’ or ‘agnostic?’
• Will these traditions get along better or worse in the Internet Age?
• Why is Jerusalem so hotly contested?

And much more.

Program or University Transfer

We recommend you attend an information session to learn how Religion courses can be taken in a program or as individual university transfer courses. If you plan to take individual courses at Camosun, when you apply online, you will select University Transfer as your program option.
