London Religion Program

Students can complete their Religion GE requirements in one of the world's most vibrant and cosmopolitan cities. In-class learning in London will be augmented by a 5-day international field trip to experience some of the world's best preserved biblical sites in person. The destination of the Summer Religion field trip is still being confirmed, but past destinations include Athens, Corinth, ancient Ephesus, and Istanbul. The Summer Religion program will be an immersive international experience, allowing students to learn about the Bible in context and about the interaction between Religion and Politics around the world.

This program was offered in Summer 2023 and is not being offered for this upcoming year
