The modules are taught at RTC during the months of October, February, June and October. Many of our Postgraduate students are ministers in churches or para-church organisations, who choose to return to an academic setting to reflect on both the philosophy and practical aspects of ministry. Both degrees provide a significant contribution to in-service training for Christian ministry. Students are required to engage in introductory reading before each module, normally consisting of three books. There are 25 contact hours during each residential week.
Seminars provide the basic knowledge needed for students to develop their own ideas and arguments.
Students also have the opportunity for discussion and interaction with each other during the residential weeks. Course work One research paper of 6,500 - 7,500 words is required for each module. Papers are submitted within two months of the completion of each residential week. The dissertation is completed by the end of June in the second year of study. Entrance requirements Applicants for the MA will normally be graduates with a first or second class honours degree in Theology.
