The Majors' Seminar , ordinarily taken in the Junior year, is designed to help majors synthesize course work by focusing on key themes, questions and areas for further theological inquiry. This course is offered each fall. Majors are encouraged to work with other departments in cross-disciplinary study. Students in the School of Education can also major in Theology. Theology majors can concentrate in education in the School of Education .
Students thus have access to the resources of one of the world's great centers of theological study.
The Theology Minor allows students to focus on a theme within Theology and to work on that theme with an internationally recognized theological faculty. For example, a minor might focus on the teachings and spirituality of the Roman Catholic Church, or a particular era in the history of the Christian Churches, or current ethical issues, or Jewish Studies, or the beliefs and practices of Hinduism, Buddhism or Islam. The minor chooses a combination of courses that will enable him or her to deal with the content and to assimilate the theological methods related to the chosen theme. The Theology Minor consists of six three credit courses. One of these can also count toward the Theology Core requirement.
