This program is perfect for those looking to deepen their knowledge of how religion, theology, and spirituality influence today's society and historical turning points, while honing analytical abilities.

You'll examine diverse topics in religious and theological studies, with choices between textual/hermeneutic methods and social science perspectives, plus chances for fieldwork both locally and abroad.

The MA in Theology and Religious Studies lets you investigate subjects like biblical scholarship, global religions through social science lenses, and Christian theological/ethical traditions.

Our teaching is research-driven. In REF2021, 88% of our research was rated as world-class (4) or internationally significant (3), ranking us 7th nationally by this metric (REF2021 Results Analysis Elsevier).

Both private and public sector professionals enroll to boost their 'religious competence' and showcase transferable skills gained through theological study. Some students join purely out of intellectual curiosity about global faith traditions, scriptures, and practices, while others pursue ministerial growth.
