If you work in ministry (ordained or lay) for any Christian church, this course will offer you an opportunity to deepen and develop your understanding of theology, to enhance your ministerial skills and to reflect theologically on your experience of ministry. The emphasis is on an interdisciplinary approach and the integration of theory with practice. The MA in Theology can be used as a foundation for the Doctorate of Ministry or for a research degree (MPhil or PhD).
The MA can be seen in a number of ways:
* as an opportunity for in-service training and on-going personal development;
* as a chance to develop new skills;
* as a focus for evaluation of one's current work;
* as a structure for fostering expertise in an area of theology;
* as a step towards further research;
* to develop new approaches to pastoral ministry.
The MA in Theology can be followed by:
* Full-time residential study
* Part-time residential study
* Part-time non-residential study
