Welcome to the Department of Theology & Religious Studies

“Lampeter has always had a quaint and rather monastic reputation, being small...brilliant at religious studies and too remote for train links. But, with Lampeter rocketing up the league tables, a new future beckons, as it plans to merge with Trinity University College”
("The Independent", July 2009).

The Department of Theology and Religious Studies in Lampeter is ranked 10th in the UK for undergraduate theology and religious studies (The Independent, May 2010), 1st in the UK for postgraduate distance learning (The Guardian, February 2009) and 9th in the UK for research power (Research Fortnight, from RAE 2008).  Therefore, Lampeter is one of the premier sites in the UK for studying religion, both at undergraduate and postgraduate level, part time or full time, on campus or from home. and across a wide variety of areas.
