This is a post-masters non-clinical degree for those who plan to teach in colleges,
serve as chaplains in colleges and universities, coordinate programs where religion
and psychology interact, or do research and writing in the psychological approach

are to provide an intellectual context for considering a wide variety of approaches
to the conceptualization of personality, culture, and religious development;
to offer an understanding of the dynamics of religious experiences and their
implications for a wide range of self-world modes; to provide an opportunity
to relate the disciplines of religious studies and psychological studies in meaningful
and creative ways; and to offer guidance in planning, conceptualizing, researching,
and writing on problems and issues generated by the religion/psychology interface.
