What will I learn?
Engage critically with the Catholic intellectual tradition, understand the complex realities of religion across history, and gain insight into contemporary challenges.This three-year program offers an introduction to the breadth of contemporary theological study, providing you with the opportunity to explore study areas like biblical studies, systematic theology, ministry, liturgy, world religions, ancient languages, moral theology, and philosophy. The Bachelor of Theology also gives you the flexibility to select units from other disciplines, such as arts and social sciences, including the option to compete a major drawn from the Bachelor of Arts majors.If you’re interested in an overseas experience, you can study at our Rome Campus, at one of our partner universities around the world, or join a short study tour to places like Israel.The Christian thought major sequence explores the nature and meaning of Christian faith in Jesus Christ as articulated in the Christian creeds, and celebrated through the way in which Christians understand and live out their faith in different contexts. You’ll engage with a contextual and critical examination of beliefs central to the Christian tradition: the significance of Christ’s life, death, and resurrection, the implications of faith in Christ for belief in God, and understandings of creation, human personhood, sin, salvation, the church, and the eschaton. You’ll consider these beliefs from varying theological perspectives, and in light of historical and cultural questions. Topics include the trinity, Christology, ecclesiology, theological anthropology, eschatology, and Christian spirituality.
