Students in the School of Divinity (also known as St Mary’s College) come from diverse backgrounds and with very different goals in mind. While some wish simply to explore questions of worldview and consider the shape of religious belief and practice in our society, others hold faith commitments of many different types. You will be encouraged to express and to develop your own ideas. A mixture of pre-suppositions, outlooks and interests amongst both students and staff fosters lively debate, enables you to gain respect for others and helps you understand their views. Whatever perspective you come from these programmes are guaranteed to encourage lively intellectual reflection upon prior assumptions and upon theology’s engagement with culture.
Timetable clash exists and this combination is subject to the agreement of the Chair of the Department or Head of School concerned.
Which Programme Is For You? The MTheol, our most popular degree, is the best choice if you want to focus your university career on topics directly related to theological and biblical studies. If you want a wider range of options across Arts subjects, but still want to give most of your attention to divinity, then either the MA (Biblical Studies) or the MA (Theological Studies) is the degree for you. Should you have academic interests that straddle both divinity and another subject area then one of the Joint Honours options would suit you best. If you already have an undergraduate degree then the shorter BD degree, with its focus on theological and biblical studies would be ideal, especially if you are considering service within a Christian denomination.
