Models illustrating some possible elective combinations in Religious Studies The sample models below illustrate some possible combinations of the breadth and depth elective requirements. These are just a few of the many possible course combinations available. Courses listed are courses that are offered on a regular basis; however, they will not necessarily be offered every year. In addition, every year one or more courses on special topics in Religious Studies are offered that do not appear here. In other words, this sampling is designed to give you a general idea of the kinds of courses that may be used to fulfill the requirements: it does not cover all of the possibilities. Also note that some courses may be used to fulfill requirements in more than one area of concentration. It is essential that you consult with your adviser on a regular basis.
