Old Catholic and Ecumenical Theology

About

Open to students of all religions, the Old Catholic and Ecumenical Theology degree program offers in-depth insights to Old Catholic theology, relating it to ecumenical theological and interreligious questions. Accordingly, lecturers from Old Catholic, Protestant, Roman Catholic, Orthodox and Anglican theology offer courses at the Department of Old Catholic Studies, which is the only university department of its kind in Germany. The degree program is complemented by courses on the Jewish-Christian and Muslim-Christian dialogue. A central aspect of this degree program is its practical approach, with contract lecturers working in ecclesiastical and extra-ecclesiastical professions. As an inherent part of the curriculum, the International Old Catholic Theological Conference, which is often held as a joint Anglican and Old Catholic theological conference, is a great opportunity for students to network with theologians from Germany, the United Kingdom, Austria, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Poland and the Czech Republic. Possible lines of work: Priest of the German Old Catholic Church (practical training required after masters degree), speaker in ecumenical and (inter)religious fields, academia (research management, teaching/research at universities, research institutions, etc.), journalism (editing at news agencies, radio, television, etc.), book sector (archives, libraries, publishers)
