Ph.D. Scholarships in Inter-Religious Studies at ICRS-Yogya
ICRS-Yogya is an international Ph.D. program in inter-religious studies which is supported by three leading universities: Gadjah Mada University, State Islamic University Sunan Kalijaga, and Duta Wacana Christian University. Inter-religious studies at ICRS-Yogya focus on religions in Asia (especially Indonesia), using the tools of social, historical and cultural sciences, as well as taking seriously the normative teaching of each religion. Students from different religious and academic backgrounds study in respectful dialogue with one another. ICRS-Yogya students often study religions in relation to contemporary issues such as social justice, human rights, environment, gender, civil society, conflict, violence, religion and science, etc. ICRS-Yogya also offers comparative interpretation of sacred texts especially in relation to social and public life.
In addition to taking doctoral seminars offered by ICRS-Yogya, our students take elective graduate courses relevant to their research interests taught by Indonesian and foreign faculty members of all three universities. The ICRS-Yogya Ph.D. degree is legally based at Gadjah Mada University.
