The Master of Theology is an advanced professional degree designed to enable qualified students in theology to broaden and deepen their theological knowledge and sharpen their research skills and competencies beyond M.Div level. This program builds on the general theological preparation of the Master of Divinity and moves toward a concentration which progresses independent research, effective teaching and preaching, and service in church-related ministries that advanced Christian scholarship.
The Master of Theology degree is a two-year full time residential programme. The foundation and core courses will be offered during the first year. The inter-disciplinary, integrated courses and thesis are to be completed during the second year.
