College Courses

We offer college courses on Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, as interrelated religious traditions. Courses are designed to introduce students from diverse academic disciplines, as well as cultural and religious backgrounds, to an analysis of the complex interrelatedness of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.
The courses present Judaism, Christianity, and Islam as living traditions whose historical origins, current interactions, and future development will continue to shape the spiritual, cultural, political, and economic aspects of human civilization in the 21st century.
Dr. Reinhard Krauss, our Executive Director, has extensive experience in teaching these courses in diverse academic settings, including at UCLA, Bayan Islamic Graduate School, and the New Theological Seminary of the West.
For more information or to discuss hosting a course at your institution, contact us.
