Following a successful Postgraduate Programmes Review, part of a standard pattern of programme review and revalidation, the information provided here about the Master of Arts Theology has been approved by Middlesex University and is now awaiting final validation (expected in April 2022). The revalidated postgraduate programmes will offer a broader range of elective modules, especially in the areas of doctrine, church history and practical ministry, along with modules which are designed to integrate theological disciplines.
Requirements
At postgraduate level, some modules are 15 credits (some of the 5.* modules) and some modules are 30 credits (6.* and some 5.* modules).
You must take all of:
Students are expected but not formally required to attend the Postgraduate Research Seminars (non-credit bearing) which normally take place monthly on a weekday evening: the details will be announced at the start of the academic year
Requirements for Anglican ordinands
In addition to all elements of the MA set out above, you will complete a suite of placements and will also study a selection of modules at Levels 4 and 5 to provide specific Anglican training (as approved by the Church of England). This will normally comprise MP1.7, BM2.1, MP2.3, MP2.7 and may include MP2.8:
Ordinands will also take 40 credits of additional modules to take the total number of credits over two years to 240. These may be at any level of study (from Level 4 to Level 7). The selection of these modules will be discussed and agreed as part of the admissions process.
Please note
Elective modules are offered subject to viability (based on class size) and the College reserves the right to withdraw an elective module if there is insufficient interest; not all elective modules are offered every year.
These are the modules running in 2022/23. This is a provisional list and is subject to change (electives and tutors). For a full list of the elective modules which are potentially available in any given year, please see the Programme Specification.
