What is the MA (Theology)?
This programme is intended primarily to prepare students for ministry within the Seventh-day Adventist Church. It aims to provide greater depth of knowledge and mastery of skills within the student’s chosen discipline of specialisation. The international character of the Seventh-day Adventist Church and the multi-cultural context in which the Church operates require great diversity in ministry, both on the educational and pastoral level. This programme is designed to meet these challenges.
How does it work?
The programme consists of 180 credits of taught modules and the final 60 credits in a dissertation for the MA degree.
