Discover Religions and Theology Day - 23 November 2010
The Discover Religions and Theology Day will enable you to explore and experience the study of Religions and Theology at The University of Manchester.
The day will consist of an overview of the wide range of courses available, a careers presentation on opportunities following graduation, a mini-lecture by an active academic from the department, a tour of the facilities, and a choice of workshops from across a variety of topics in Religions and Theology, representative of what you would study here.
In addition, there will be plenty of opportunity for you to ask current staff and current students about studying at Manchester or life after graduation. This day will provide a real understanding of what it is like to study Religions and Theology at this university.
