What can you do with a major or minor in religious studies?  Students choose to study religion for a variety of reasons. In some cases, they seek to serve in professional roles within their religious community. Some are interested in the academic study of religion and plan to pursue graduate studies in the field at a major university. Others are interested in the discussion of ideas and values that take place in the study of religion. They may eventually enter careers in a variety of areas that call for the ability to communicate orally and in writing, capability to think critically and compassionately and the desire to serve their communities. Current graduates are involved in careers as Catholic priests, Protestant ministers or in Catholic/Protestant lay ministry, religious education, parish administration, social service, law, government and business. Several currently are pursuing graduate studies in the academic study of religion in preparation for teaching in college or university programs.
