Degree Programs

**Examine the questions of meaning, ethics, and justice that shape how we live.**

The study of religion and philosophy builds the critical thinking, ethical reasoning, and communication skills that prepare students for law, public service, the humanities, and a lifetime of engaged citizenship. Manhattan University's department offers undergraduate majors and minors in Philosophy, Religious Studies, and Peace and Justice Studies, grounded in a Lasallian commitment to social justice. Close faculty mentorship, internships in the heart of New York City, and partnerships with organizations such as the United Nations and local Bronx nonprofits set our students apart.
