A theology degree is an excellent starting point to enter a career that helps you share your knowledge and skills with the world. To teach at the elementary school, middle school or high school level, you’ll need your undergraduate theology degree and a teaching license or certificate, depending on the state you wish to teach in. You’ll also generally need classroom practicum experience.
If you wish to teach theology and religious studies at the university level, you’ll need to earn at least a master’s degree or, for some institutions, a doctorate.
If teaching theology is your passion, you can meet with your academic advisor to discuss all the options and figure out the academic path that will get you there.​​​​
