A degree in Religious Studies prepares a student for a wide variety of post-graduate directions, including graduate studies toward careers in academia, parish work, religious education, journalism and more.
“The search for truth in ever-changing contexts never becomes passe and continues to drive human history. Sometimes the process leads us to reaffirm ancient truths and values and sometimes to challenge them. I hope simply to be a catalyst for students in their ongoing discovery of truth and value.”
Dr. Joseph Raab
Professor of Religious Studies

The Religious Studies Program at Siena Heights University challenges students to engage in the academic study of religion, to construct an ethical worldview informed by faith, to strengthen their understanding of God and to hone tools and skills for life-long spiritual development.

The Religious Studies program at Siena Heights University attracts students for a number of reasons:
• Some are on fire with their faith and desire to learn more about it.
• Some want to serve people in their faith communities as youth ministers, teachers or pastoral counselors.
• Some students have questions about what they were taught as children and want to re-examine those teachings as adults to see if they make sense.
• Some students intend to go on for seminary study or graduate school, while other students are simply seekers, intrigued by questions of ultimate meaning and purpose. (Is that all there is?)
• A number of students major in another field (psychology, business, social work, information technology) and choose to minor in Religious Studies for personal enrichment or in preparation for service in the community.
