ID at the academy

From ResearchID.org, a nexus for researching Intelligent Design

Contents

Universities are beginning to analytically and synthetically investigate intelligent design. Philosophy, science, and religion classes are evaluating the research and publications of ID theorists and scientists. Below is our confirmed list of past classes, some of which are reoffered, some not. Classes listed here are not necessarily strictly about intelligent design, but they do have discussion or a unit on intelligent design.
