Berkeley Center for the Study of Religion

The Berkeley Center for the Study of Religion (BCSR) advances creative and critical scholarship on religion. BCSR faculty research, public programming, and graduate training drive new approaches to the study of religion and its intellectual and material contexts. Through its media platforms and engagement with local and global audiences, BCSR disseminates this innovative work for critical reflection and public discussion.

The transformative work of BCSR is supported by the UC Berkeley Deans of Arts and Humanities and Social Sciences, the Endowed Fund for the Study of Religious Tolerance, the Frank and Leslie Yeary Endowment for Ethics in the Humanities, the Henry Luce Foundation, and the generosity of individual donors.
