The department of religious studies at Niagara University seeks to assist students to come to a deepened appreciation of religion as an integrating value in human life, as well as a greater understanding of how the world's faith traditions, especially Christianity, influence persons, cultures and international relations by contributing answers to the basic human questions: Who am I? Where did I come from? Where am I going? The religious studies program is structured as well as flexible to assure the program serves each student’s needs. The goals include the development of an understanding of the Judeo/Christian tradition in the spirit of the Catholic and Vincentian heritage of Niagara University. This is accomplished through the exploration of unity and diversity in the dialogue between Christianity and the world religions by study of sacred texts, beliefs, symbols, rituals and communities.

A candidate for this degree must complete courses in each area for a total of 10 units plus the 3 for the general University requirement, for a total of 13 units overall. Units assigned to each area of study may, with departmental advisement, be modified to meet the career needs of the student.
