宗教研究文学硕士-基督教传统

研究生选择集中于基督教传统作为博士学位。希望宗教研究专业的学生与他们的顾问紧密合作，设计一个既能展现基督教传统研究广度又能展现特定历史时期专业化深度的课程。必要的广度和深度可以通过结合基督教传统方面的核心研讨会和具有更高研究生水平要求的高等本科课程来获得。研讨会和高年级课程的具体组合将根据学生的兴趣和先前的准备，与顾问协商后确定，但在任何情况下，都应至少在一个非宗教时期内包括一次基督教基督教博士课程。学生的专业化。
Graduate students opting for the concentration in Christian Traditions for the Ph.D. in Religious Studies are expected to work closely with their adviser to design a program that exhibits both breadth of study of the Christian tradition and depth of specialization in a particular historical period. The requisite breadth and depth can be obtained through a mix of core seminars in aspects of the Christian tradition and upper division undergraduate courses with additional graduate-level requirements. The specific mix of seminars and upper division courses will be determined in consultation with the adviser based on the student's interests and previous preparation, but in any case should include at least one doctoral seminar in Christianity in a temporal period other than that of the student's specialization.<br><br>The student is normally expected to acquire a general foundation in the history of Christianity as a global tradition and the history of Christian thought at the M.A. level either through M.A. work done elsewhere or through enrollment in upper division courses offered in Religious Studies and History at UCSB. The upper division courses recommended for undergraduate majors specializing in Christian Traditions are highly recommended for graduate students as well.
