What is distinctive about Georgetowns program?
The program is unique in that it focuses on the phenomenon of religious pluralism in all its ramifications and implications for the academy, religious communities, and society. Religious pluralism is studied in three areas: theological reflection, ethical discourse, and the relation between religion and culture. In addition, this phenomenon is studied by comparing at least two religious traditions. Thus, the program brings together the disciplines of theology and religious studies and combines theological reflection, ethical discourse, and perspectives of religion and culture.
