*If Philosophy 2660E is used to meet module requirements, only 2.0 additional Religious Studies courses at the 2100 level or above will be required. If both Religious Studies 3300F/G and Philosophy 2660E are taken, Philosophy 2660E may still be counted as a Religious Studies course at the 2200 level.

Note: Students should be aware of the following course sequencing issues with respect to this module:

1) Religious Studies 2271F/G and Religious Studies 2272F/G cannot normally be taken until at least third year as they require prerequisites of Religious Studies 2201F/G and Religious Studies 2202F/G.
2) The Department of Philosophy and Religious Studies offers certain courses in alternate years;  students are responsible for checking the Departmental Website for course rotation information.
3) Students wishing to retain the option of upgrading to one of the other Catholic Studies modules should use 2200 level courses.
