Degrees and Requirements
Master of Arts in Religion, Concentration in Religion and the
Arts.
Students in the Religion and Arts concentrate elect one of three tracks: Literature, Visual Arts, or Music. The emphasis in each track is upon history, criticism, and analysis of past and present practice. Each requires twenty-one credits in the area of concentration: in Visual Arts or Music, twelve of these credits must be taken with ISM faculty; in literature, 6 must be take with ISM faculty. In addition, at least fifteen credits shall be devoted to general theological studies: six credits in Area I, six credits in Area II, and three credits in Area III. Twelve credits of electives may be taken from anywhere in the University, though the number of electives allowed in studio art, creative writing, or musical performance is at the discretion of the advisor and permission of the instructor. In total, one-half of the student’s course load must be Divinity School credits. An undergraduate major in the field of concentration or its equivalent is required.
A limited number of studio art classes may be taken for academic credit by students in the Religion and Visual Arts track, and they must demonstrate the relevance of this study to theology. Admission to studio art courses depends entirely on the permission of the studio teacher and is customarily granted only to those with strong portfolios.
