Critical thinking, centuries of questions
Who am I as a religious believer, or non-believer? How am I to understand the particularity of my own beliefs in a religiously plural world? Can truths be found in traditions other than my own? Am I willing to look at my own faith in a rigorous and critical way?

The Department of Religious Studies at Loyola, rooted in the Catholic and Jesuit context of education, encourages the academic study of religion in a spirit of free intellectual inquiry. As the 34th congregation of the Society of Jesus states: “To be religious today is to be interreligious.” And so from the very beginning, students are invited and challenged to consider their faith in a global context, in order to deepen and enrich their appreciation of their place in the religious world.
