Theology and Religious Studies

Our inspirational courses draw on the subject specialists teaching and researching across Philosophy and Ethics, Religious Studies, Christian Theology and Biblical Studies. You will engage with contemporary questions about belief, practice and worldviews, and learn to ask critical questions of sacred texts and traditions.

Based at Hollybank on Exton Park, this dedicated Victorian building houses a computer room, kitchen, social and study space, and purpose-built modern lecture rooms. Outside your studies, you’ll have access to a range of University facilities and social hubs on site.

The Department of Theology and Religious Studies at Chester has one of the best employability rates in the UK in our discipline. Our courses develop subject-specific skills in empathy, cultural sensitivity and religious literacy – all valued by employers.
