The MA(Theology) consists of eight units of study.  Six units must be course work units. The remaining two units may be two further units, a unit and a Project or two Projects, or a two-unit Research Project. 

A Project comprises a piece of research of no longer than 8,000 words, under the direction of a Faculty consultant appointed by the College.   The Research Project comprises a piece of research of 15,000 words under the direction of a faculty consultant appointed by the College.

As in-service training for those in full-time ministry, the units offered in the course are from the three mutually dependent areas of:

  • Biblical Studies – New Testament, Old Testament, Biblical Theology

  • Christian Thought – Systematic Theology, Historical Theology, Church History, Ethics, Philosophy

  • Christian Ministry – Mission, Apologetics, Christian Worship

All work undertaken in the program is expected to be based on a solid foundation of exegetical skills. Accordingly, all candidates must select at least one unit dealing with a book of the Bible in the original language.
