Religious traditions fall into super-groups in comparative religion, arranged by historical origin and mutual influence. Abrahamic religions originate in the Middle East, Indian religions in India and Far Eastern religions in East Asia. Another group with supra-regional influence are African diasporic religions, which have their origins in Central and West Africa.

Minor concentrations are available in Comparative Religion, Bible, World Religions and Judaic Studies. A minor consists of five courses approved by the department, one of which must be at or above the 300 level. Rel 102, though not required, is strongly recommended. For the minor in Judaic Studies, see Jonathan Brumberg-Kraus.
