The School of Religion, Theology, and Peace Studies tackles the questions facing humanity by seeking to understand the roles of religion, peace-making and theology in both their historical settings and contemporary life. Committed to interdisciplinarity, academic rigour, dialogue and civic engagement, the School pursues its goals through teaching, collaborations with the public and academic research. The School consists of two disciplines: (1) Peace Studies and (2) Religious Studies, the latter of which includes: Biblical Studies, the Cultural Study of Religions, Ethics, and Christian Theology – including Theology in the Catholic Tradition and Ecumenics the School also has a growing reputation in Jewish, Islamic and Buddhist Studies. Postgraduate research students can specialise in Peace Studies or in one of the above fields of study within Religious Studies or they can work on the synergies and inter-connections between them.
