Research

With the generous support from the Endowed Fund for the Study of Religious Tolerance, the Berkeley Center for the Study of Religion invites proposals from UC Berkeley graduate students and faculty on the topic of religious tolerance and intolerance. We hope to promote new and interdisciplinary forms of research on this topic and encourage proposals from any disciplinary or area studies perspective.

The BCSR invites proposals for graduate student working groups focusing on a specific topic in the study of religion, such as ethnographic approaches to religion, African religion, or poetry and religion, etc. The purpose of the working groups is to offer graduate students of religion a supportive interdisciplinary community to share work, discuss readings, and meet religion scholars.
