Sciences des religions et sociétés, or the sciences of religions and societies, is an interdisciplinary field examining religious traditions, beliefs, and practices and their relationship to social, cultural, and political life. Students in this discipline typically study the history and comparative study of religions, the sociology and anthropology of religion, and the ways religious institutions and beliefs interact with law, politics, and society more broadly. Coursework often includes methods for analyzing religious texts, rituals, and communities from a scholarly rather than confessional perspective, alongside broader training in the social sciences. The Master Sciences Des Religions Et Societes is offered by Université Lumière - Lyon 2, located in Bron, France, as a two-year master's degree taught in French, with an inferred start in September and yearly tuition of 250 EUR. Graduates in this field often pursue careers in research, higher education, cultural mediation, journalism, public administration, and roles within organizations working on questions of religious diversity, secularism, or interfaith relations. Some graduates work in museums, cultural heritage institutions, or nongovernmental organizations focused on social cohesion, while others continue toward doctoral research in religious studies or related social sciences. Because the field sits at the crossroads of history, sociology, anthropology, and political science, it offers a broad analytical toolkit applicable to many social and cultural contexts, in France and internationally. As the program is delivered in French, prospective students should be comfortable studying, reading, and writing in French throughout their two years of coursework and research.
