UNC’s MA in Religious Studies invites graduate scholars to interrogate sacred texts, rituals, and ethical systems through historical, anthropological, and digital-humanities lenses. Students master Syriac or Sanskrit, code TEI-XML critical editions, and curate virtual exhibitions on Afro-Atlantic spiritual resilience. Fieldwork with North Carolina’s immigrant congregations, alongside study-abroad seminars in Jerusalem and Varanasi, grounds theory in lived practice. Public-humanities partnerships with museums and policy institutes prepare graduates to inform media, law, and cultural-heritage discourse.
