This adaptable program explores Christianity's history through multiple lenses—theological, philosophical, and historical—while offering opportunities to focus on specific topics ranging from early church developments to contemporary issues.

You'll gain the ability to critically analyze and contextualize the evolution of Christian thought throughout different historical periods.

Our multidisciplinary approach brings together church historians, historical theologians, and systematic theologians. Your studies will benefit from the School's visiting speaker series and ongoing research seminars covering Christian history, theology, and ethics.

Students can choose between earning a Master of Theology (MTh) or Master of Science (MSc) degree—the distinction lies solely in the title.
