ADVANCED DIPLOMA

In addition to Bible units, the Advanced Diploma of Theology has an emphasis on Christian Thought units in the areas of Theology, Church History and Philosophy & Ethics. The course provides foundational knowledge and skills appropriate to Christian ministry, but not to the depth required for leaders and teachers in congregations, for which vocations the Bachelor of Theology, Bachelor of Ministry, the Master of Ministry, and the Master of Divinity have been devised.

This is a great space to write long text about your company and your services. You can use this space to go into a little more detail about your company. Talk about your team and what services you provide. Tell your visitors the story of how you came up with the idea for your business and what makes you different from your competitors. Make your company stand out and show your visitors who you are. 

​

The Advanced Diploma is a nine-month postgraduate qualification especially designed for those who already have a degree, but in a subject other than Theology and Religious Studies. Taking this course may be a first step to doing an MPhil or PhD in Theology or Religious Studies in this or another university, but does not count towards such a degree.

Learning Outcomes

On completion of the Advanced Diploma students should have:

• made the transition from another discipline, usually in the humanities, and acquired a grounding in the key concepts and methods in the subject;

• acquired advanced understanding in up to four sub-disciplines of the subject;

• acquired detailed knowledge of a specific topic, either in a chosen sub-discipline, or of an interdisciplinary character, and of basic principles of scholarly research, through the writing of a dissertation; and

• had the opportunity to acquire a basic or advanced proficiency in a scriptural language of a major religious tradition and in the interpretation of scriptural texts.
