What our students say
Maddie
"Manchester offers one of the most diverse Religions courses in the country.
With only one compulsory module in your undergraduate career, you can pick and choose modules that fit with your specific talents and interests. For example, I can focus on my passion for the ethics of religion due to my selection of relevant modules.
There are many different modules on offer, coving topics from feminist biblical theology to the problem of evil; you will be spoilt for choice!"

"The modern approach to theology is something that I found intriguing and unique to The University of Manchester.
Last year I did a module called ‘All About Eve’ which looked at the image of Eve in Genesis and how it has been used in today’s day and age. This module had great teaching staff who showed passion for the subject.
The module opened my eyes to the use of the Bible in advertisement and capitalism."
