Think Tank makes case for Theology and Religious Studies

For students. The think tank THEOS has produced a student-facing resource Big Questions. Real-World Skills, which highlights the importance of studying Theology and Religious Studies at university. “We live in a world shaped by rapid technological change, global interconnection, and deep differences in belief and identity. Theology and Religious Studies (TRS) is a subject that speaks directly to that world”, it says. The brochure argues for the importance and value of TRS courses and includes testimonies from recent TRS graduates on how the subject has been applied to careers in law, politics, the civil service and communications. It’s part of a suite of resources on RE and Theology / Religious Studies on the THEOS website.
