The Department of Philosophy

The Religion & Culture Certificate is designed to provide undergraduate students with skills of critical thinking and virtues of citizenship as they explore the complexities of:

• The American tradition of separation of church and state; 
• “Green” religiosity;
• Religious views of peace, toleration and war in the Middle East;
• Islamic critiques of western culture;
• The Buddhist legacy in the conflict between Tibet and China;

The Certificate is open to all OSU undergraduates as a supplement to any undergraduate degree program.

Completion of the Certificate requires a minimum of 29 credit hours, including:

A. 17 hours from religion courses in the Philosophy Department
B. 12 hours of approved electives from other departments, and is recognized with a transcript-visible notation.
