Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Religion, Theology & Spirituality and Geography (RT17)

If students want a cathedral, we’ve got one to spare!’ runs a traditional Liverpool song. This city has been shaped by its religious past – it has seen over two centuries of religious riots, they will find the oldest mosque in England here, and the landscape is dominated by two amazing cathedrals. Liverpool now is home to vibrant new religious communities from across the world. All that makes Liverpool Hope the perfect place to study the spirituality, wisdom, and mysticism of the major religious traditions like Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Hinduism, and Buddhism. But our city with its art and music scenes also tells us that the human quest for meaning and purpose goes beyond the traditional ‘religions.’ People today are often seeking a ‘spiritual’ identity – but not necessarily a ‘religious’ one.

Geography is about exploring, encountering and engaging with the world around us. It is a dynamic and exciting subject to study. It looks at how the physical world works; how people interact both with each other and with the physical world; how landscapes (both physical and human) evolve; and the ways in which the environment needs to be conserved and managed. Geography covers many different perspectives and brings them together to create a distinctive way of understanding the world. Whether they interests are more towards physical, environmental or human geography, our degree offers students the chance to develop an integrated, enriched understanding of what is taking place on our planet.
