Aims

Elective courses can be replaced by (interdisciplinary) projects as part of individual initiatives, (international) exchange programmes, departmental activities (e.g. conferences), projects of research centres and groups. Such proposals can be made by the relevant groups, the students and/or professors, and the Teaching Committee. The Teaching Committee will approve these projects on a yearly basis.

Unique opportunities for interdisciplinary projects with social impact on the South are offered through the KU Leuven linked Academics for Development.

Aims:

* the capacity to evaluate a particular primary theme of theology and/or religious studies;
* knowledge of one important problem and insight of a distinct theological discipline;

* the capacity to independently write an academically sound paper on a topic related to theology or religious studies.
* the capacity to work in a multidisciplinary team on a project with social impact on the South
* the capacity to discern, identify and communicate the socio-religious aspects of NGO projects for social development in the South

Content

The possibility to opt for Project work aims at deepening a particular insight obtained during the Bachelor's programme. This course aims to prepare students for independent research in theology and religious studies in a field which is not covered by the regular courses by collaborating with professors or organisations outside our Faculty and using a methodology which is different from the regular approach.

The multidisciplinary approach is particularly stimulated in projects of  the KU Leuven linked Academics for Development.
