Religious Studies 3
30 ECTS credits
The course builds on the courses Religious Studies I and II 1-30, and 31-60 ECTS cr. Practical and theoretical methodology is deepened as students perform practical tasks during a placement period and develop field study methods. Religion as a societal phenomenon is emphasised, and current research results are integrated with the focus on using methods and developing an academic and critical approach. The course is concluded with an independent project in an area of religious studies or teaching methodology.
Module 1 is a practical placement course allowing the students to put their previously acquired knowledge and experiences into religious studies practice. Students test, develop and reinforce their knowledge and skills, and develop their ability to work independently in cooperation with others and to communicate orally and in writing. Emphasis is put on the students continuous participation in the daily work and the opportunity to work with study assignments that are beneficial to both the workplace and the student's ability to turn theory into practice.
Students are responsible for arranging their own placement in consultation with the course convener. A workplace supervisor is required and the placement organisation and the Kau department enter into a contract before the placement starts.
Supervision for module 3 is provided for the duration of the course. Students who re-register to complete the project in a later semester are offered supervision if circumstances permit.
