Two new Canadian doctoral programs in Religious Studies opened their doors in September 2004. The Laurier-Waterloo and University of British Columbia programs provide the springboard for this paper to look at the full range of Canadian doctoral programs in our field: their distinctive characteristics, and the requirements they impose on students. This paper also uses the results to reflect on the nature of Religious Studies in this country: what has changed and what has remained the same over the last half century? In closing, it suggests ways in which the doctoral programs and the field itself could be made stronger.
