Mission & Vision

Our missions and special features

We prepare students to become professionals who are capable of carrying out religious research, religious education or religious service. Students will thoroughly explore the relationship between faith, action and healing.

Students will start from studying religious texts and gaining firsthand experience from daily practice, such as loving themselves and caring for others.

Later, they will write their research papers, meanwhile, practicing what they have learned in the field they are associated with, such as medicine, education, charity, counseling, humanistic culture, communications, etc. As a result, students will enhance their knowledge and enrich their practices. Our special features are as follows:

From studying the theories and philosophies of religious texts, anthropology, psychology, and phenomenology, students will learn religious doctrine, dogma and experience, such as how religions alleviate and heal societal and individual sufferings.

Our research is action-oriented, mainly employing an empirical approach and puts relevant theories into use. The Institute provides students ample opportunities to acquire humanistic, sociological, and other practical experience, enabling them to expand their horizons from knowledge and actual experience.
