Theology & Ministry,PCert

At the core of our PG Certificate lies the desire to integrate theology and ministry in a way that enriches both. This integration is the hallmark of all of our modules and is exemplified in our programme’s core module, Theological and Practical Reflection on Mission & Ministry. Here students explore Practical Theology, an approach to theology that seeks to take practice and experience seriously, both as a context for the development of new insight and faithful response in light of Scripture and tradition, and as a source of new questions to bring to Scripture and tradition.

This approach engages the whole range of theological sub-disciplines and is also interdisciplinary in its use of social scientific or other academic disciplines. Above all, it reflects a desire to live faithfully in the light of rigorous and prayerful thinking.

At the core of our Postgraduate Certificate lies the desire to integrate theology and ministry in a way that enriches both.

For the Postgraduate Certificate the entrance requirement is either a BA in Theology or Religious Studies or a related subject, or a BA in another discipline with experience of Theology or Religious Studies to at least HE Certificate level.

If you don’t meet the above requirements but do have relevant experience, training, or unaccredited study, we’d still love to hear from you as it may be possible to admit you to the Postgraduate Certificate. Please contact us to discuss, as we apply for university approval on a case-by-case basis.
