Religions and Theology: Course unit selection fair, 2020-21

Explore your course unit options for the coming academic year! The course code itself tells you the year/level and the semester in which the course is running. For example, RELT30672 tells you that the course is year/level 3 and runs in semester 2. Bear in mind that some of the specific details (eg assessment) are provisional at this stage.
