Religious Studies and Theology focus on the supernatural, sacred or divine, holy writings and the moral code, ritual practices, dogmas, values or associated institutions. Religion has several functions that are expressed through the human behaviour: cognitive or action function, anxiety reduction, social function, compensation and identity.
Religious Studies are interdisciplinary because they capture the impact of religion in the international environment and the presence of traditions in the modern world. Research focuses on different approaches on religions and its place in history.
