Master of Theology in Religions

Master of Theology in Religion is two year full time  post graduate programe. To study Theology is to engage with the deepest questions of life.  What can we say about God?  Who is Jesus?  What does it mean to be human? How should we live in this world? Where do we find meaning and identity? Theology will equip you to think through these questions - and many others like them - in ways that are consistent and coherent. The programme offers a nurturing environment for you to explore answers in light of the biblical writings, study the rich history of the Christian faith, investigate the thinking of past and living theologians, and learn about contemporary practice - while gaining the skills and knowledge you need to address the questions that really matter.
