Catholic theology is a 2,000-year-old academic discipline. The Master’s Program in Theology (Department of Theology) is the basic and central research field of Catholic theology, and also focuses on the importance of dialogue with other ideas, cultures, and religions from a global perspective.
The department offers four courses to meet the various interests and needs of students, as follows – 1) Systematic Theology Course: Aims at the systematic study of Catholic theology, including the training of priests in the Catholic Church. 2) Biblical Theology Course 3) Christian Education Course: Studies practical pastoral care founded on basic theological theory. 4) Mission Practitioner Course: Aims to train those who will be involved in the field of service in the church. Students who meet the requirements can earn a master’s degree within the period of one year.
Curriculum
In the Master of Theology program, students must complete a minimum of 30 credits, write a thesis, and pass the comprehensive examination to receive the degree of Master of Theology. Our Systematic Theology Course is approved by the Pontifical Council for the conferral of degrees, in which students can obtain the STB (Sacrae Theologiae Baccalaureatus) and STL (Sacrae Theologiae Licentiatus) after passing the examination. These are degrees common to all Catholic Churches around the world.
In the doctoral program (Department of Systematic Theology), we encourage students to pursue unique research themes, and a dissertation is required as the result of that research. The main objective is to train researchers, but at the same time, we value the cultivation of qualified personnel who can contribute to the church and society at large.
