Master of Theology
If you are looking for an advanced education in Biblical Studies or Systematic Theology, with training in core skills in theology and the humanities, the two-year Master of Theology programme is offering just that. Choose between studies on campus or online!
About the programme
With one eye on ancient texts and traditions and the other squarely on contemporary concerns, the programme will deepen your knowledge and understanding of theology, thus enabling you to understand the world in new ways.
The master of theology is designed to provide you with an advanced understanding of theology, specializing in Biblical Studies or Systematic Theology.
- The Biblical Studies track has a particular focus on Jewish-Christian relations in the study of biblical and related texts, their historical and literary contexts, as well as their past reception and contemporary use.
- The Systematic Theology track has a twofold focus, both on the main tenets of the Christian doctrinal tradition and on the relation between theology and politics and ethics. Common to both specializations is the critical investigation of a rich heritage with a view to the concerns of our own time.
Graduates of the programme receive the degree Master of Arts in Theology.
Future career
The programme will equip you for work in the academy, church or society, including teaching and research, ministry, policy-making, and NGO-work. In short, the program is relevant to a number of professional contexts in a world in which a deeper knowledge of theology and religion is increasingly sought after and valued.
