Heritage 2A and 2B Focus

HERITAGE 2A AND B – HOW DID WE GET HERE? HISTORICAL ROOTS OF CONTEMPORARY PROBLEMS

The focus of the Heritage 2 courses is on the past, and how an understanding of the western intellectual and religious traditions is vital to understanding the world’s contemporary challenges. Students will take two courses in this phase:

Heritage 2a: Judeo-Christian Heritage

In support of the goals of the Walsh University mission to encourage individuals to know how "to act in accordance with reason guided by the example and teachings of Jesus Christ," the Heritage 2a courses are Theology courses that deepen one’s understanding of the history and meaning of Christianity or the Catholic faith.

Heritage 2b: Western Intellectual Traditions

Heritage 2b courses focus on the history of secular ideas and events that have shaped western culture and its impact on the contemporary world.

Heritage 2a Classes

Heritage 2a: Judeo-Christian Heritage

In support of the goals of the Walsh University mission to encourage individuals to know how "to act in accordance with reason guided by the example and teachings of Jesus Christ," the Heritage 2a courses are Theology courses that deepen one’s understanding of the history and meaning of Christianity or the Catholic faith.
