Study our MA Theology programme through critical engagement with contemporary scholarship and the tradition of the Church. Faithful to the magisterium, this course seeks to provide students with a deep grounding in Catholic theology and its relationship to the modern world. You will become familiar with the writings of a range of theologians and have opportunities to develop personal research interests.
This course would allow you to explore the richness of Christian spirituality through historical, anthropological, and theological lenses. It integrates theory with practice, and will be particularly appealing if you are in ministry, contemplating ministry, or wanting to discover more about this. The course examines different understandings of how Christians seek to relate to God, the underlying theology, and the particular practices or lifestyles that express these understandings.
This established MA course equips you with the skills to assess the ethical, legal, social, and spiritual aspects of advances in medicine and related technologies.
This degree will give students a thorough grounding at an advanced level to the principles, history, and application of Catholic Social Teaching and related disciplines.
Apply Catholic theology to the challenges and opportunities of the contemporary world and learn about Scripture, Doctrine, Christian Spirituality, Catholic Social Teaching, and Ethics. The MA in Applied Catholic Theology is designed to provide both a thorough grounding in key aspects of Catholic theology while also developing the necessary skills and aptitudes to apply Catholic theology to the challenges and opportunities of the contemporary world.
The Professional Doctorate in Ministry (DMin) is a unique opportunity to combine theological reflection and ministerial practice leading to a doctoral level qualification.
We live in rapidly changing times. Accordingly, the School of Theology at St Mary’s has decided to initiate a new Doctorate in Ministry in order to help ministers to respond to the challenges of modern ministry whilst also contributing to the growing academic resources available.
In this respect the course has two main elements: first, the opportunity for theological, philosophical, and ethical reflection on the nature of ministry and, secondly, the provision of a skillset for practitioners to contribute to academic knowledge of ministry by developing their own original doctoral-level research thesis.
