Information from the course co-ordinator
Very welcome to the course Behavioural Science Perspectives on Religion! The course is a full-time, 7.5-credit course on advanced level, running week 46-50, consisting of an introduction and three mandatory seminars. To each seminar there is a connected short video and assignments.
The studies are based on individual responsibility, active search for knowledge, critical approach, and reflection. The course is taught in English, and all communication - including seminars, assignments, and general correspondence - will also be in English.
A timetable will be available at the start of the semester, and a Study Guide will be provided on Canvas before the course begins.

On Canvas you will find important documents, like the curriculum and the course literature list, as well as the study guidance which will guide you through the whole course. If you are not familiar with Canvas please take a look here:
