The history of belief systems that we explore in the Religion track goes beyond Europe
and North America. In addition to a wealth of courses on Christianity from the earliest
times to the present, the Religion track also encompasses non-Judeo-Christian traditions
such as Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, and various indigenous systems of belief, both
ancient and modern. As the flagship Utah institution of higher learning, a key component
of the Religion track is the study of the history of Mormonism. The study of religious
history informs our understanding of social institutions and cultural values and it
reveals how communities determine and encourage ethical behavior even in areas such
as business and trade.
