| Postgraduate Diploma |
|
The Postgraduate Diploma will enable you to engage at a high-level with today's significant theological and pastoral questions. You will take time to reflect and consider in a deeper way the meaning and application of scripture in our fractured, quickly changing world.
The PGDip, like our other postgraduate courses, is intentionally integrative: what you learn from interpreting the Bible, systematic theology, church history, and ethics, is tied together. In that way, the classroom is just like the pulpit, or the Friday night youth group, or the challenging questions in a Christianity Explored course.
What do we learn about the doctrine of grace from scripture, from systematic theology, from church history and the other relevant fields? Oak Hill postgraduate modules model the unity and diversity that are proper to Christian theology.
The PGDip, like our other postgraduate courses, has your practical ministry in mind. You go deeper in order to explain things more simply and clearly. You aren't left at the end with great theology that won't make sense to anybody in the pew. Many of the modules, therefore, have you practise communicating those insights in such a way that anyone can grasp them.
What distinguishes the PGDip from the MA and MTh is that it does not require a research component (although you can do a short dissertation or project if you want). You take four taught modules to earn the PGDip. This fits well for many people who want to study and prepare for ministry at a postgraduate level but for whom independent research is not the right fit.
The programme can be taken over one year full-time or two years part-time. |
