Overview

  • Our theology degree fosters the search for meaning and spiritual depth in the context of cultural and religious pluralism in contemporary Australia. Connect history with emerging practice, learn about the ways in which God speaks, explore ways the Church has spoken about God, reflect carefully on your own speech about God, and combine theory with practice in communicating God's care for the world in your own contexts.
  • Build strong theological foundations
  • You'll be introduced to four main sub-disciplines of theology: Biblical studies, church history, systematic and practical theology subjects. You'll also have the opportunity to choose elective subjects within these disciplines to tailor your studies to meet your interests.
  • Take your learning experience to your community
  • To enable you to pursue ordination or other forms of ministry, the course is offered in conjunction with St Mark's National Theological Centre in Canberra, the United Theological College in Sydney and Ming Hua Theological College, Hong Kong. Study support is readily available throughout your exploration of theology.
  • Expand your learning
  • You can choose to study solely theology subjects or integrate your study with another area of interest to explore your faith and beliefs as well as those of other traditions. Choosing subjects that are vocationally oriented, ecumenically sensitive and integrated with practical experience will help you pursue ordination or professional ministry.
