C. Individual Degree Programme in Science of Religion

Das Individuelle Studium Religionswissenschaft wird ab Herbst 2008 durch das neue Regelstudienangebot (Erweiterungscurricula, Master) ersetzt. Es kann daher nicht mehr erstinskribiert werden. Alle Studierenden, die zu diesem Zeitpunkt eine gültige Zulassung zum IRW besitzen, haben aber die Möglichkeit, das Studium weiter zu belegen und abzuschliessen.
