Guided Pathways: Religion

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.
