This program offers an in-depth exploration of Mathematics and Theological Studies through research-focused education, enabling students to comprehend how knowledge evolves, progresses, and is revitalized. It fosters independent learning among all participants, promoting curiosity, precision, ethical scholarship, and academic excellence. Spanning 48 months, the course culminates in a Master of Arts (Honours) degree. Like all St Andrews programs, it consists of credit-based modules, requiring students to complete 480 credits total—typically 120 per academic year. The initial two years focus on mandatory program-specific modules alongside elective options (which may include interdisciplinary courses). Subsequent years emphasize advanced, research-driven study through specialized curriculum modules. The first two years combine core program requirements with diverse elective choices (potentially spanning multiple faculties), while later years concentrate on tailored, research-oriented coursework.
