宗教与社会是一个跨学科计划，为研究宗教在当代社会中的普遍作用提供了机会，特别是在美国国家政治，国际关系，经济发展和大众文化中以及在广泛设想的社会变革的各个方面。课程要求旨在使学生以自己的方式理解几种主要的宗教传统，以及对宗教在各个时期和不同地点，尤其是当代世界所扮演的社会和文化角色的看法，以及人类文化的特定方面，例如政治，暴力和群体认同。该计划对任何SU学生开放，并且对有志于从事新闻，国际关系，法律，政府或外国服务职业的学生特别有用。
Religion & Society is an interdisciplinary program that provides the opportunity to study the pervasive role of religion in contemporary society, especially in U.S. national politics, international relations, economic development, and popular culture-and in most facets of social change broadly conceived. Course requirements aim to provide students with an understanding of several major religious traditions on their own terms, as well as perspectives on the social and cultural roles played by religion in various periods and places, not the least of which is the contemporary world, and on particular aspects of human cultures, such as politics, violence, and group identity. The program is open to any SU student, and may be especially useful to students interested in pursuing careers in journalism, international relations, law, government or foreign service.
