MPhil Religious Studies

University of Stirling

As a postgraduate researcher in Religious Studies at the University of Stirling, you’ll work with a range of scholars at the cutting edge of critical engagement, with key themes in religion, politics, gender, philosophy, economics and more. Our Religion research seeks to interrogate the historical construction and limitations of the term itself, and to ask positive but searching questions about the place of religious discourse – and discourse on religion – in contemporary societies. We have a vibrant research environment that welcomes, values and supports PhD researchers.Research students in the Faculty of Arts and Humanities are provided with access to dedicated research facilities as well as an opportunity to attend a range of research seminars and workshops within specialist research centres and collaboratively across multi-disciplinary subjects. Research students have access to a number of training opportunities, at University, Faculty and Divisional levels, including subject specialist training within postgraduate research seminars and other forums.
