Master of Arts in Theology

Program Overview

The MA in Theology provides a graduate-level foundation in central areas of theology. The degree is especially appropriate for those who wish to teach theology at the secondary level or prepare for doctoral-level studies in theology. The curriculum is designed to equip students for more specialized study in systematic theology, moral theology, or Biblical theology at the doctoral level. Elective offerings allow students to pursue some degree of specialization, in consultation with his or her academic advisor, as is appropriate to his or her particular goals and interests.

The MA Theology courses and course offerings are rooted in Duquesne University's Catholic identity and simultaneously attentive to the University's mission, which includes a commitment to ecumenical and global concerns. Through completing required courses, elective courses, and an optional six-credit thesis, students will accomplish these student learning outcomes at the curricular level:

Students will demonstrate comprehension of foundational areas of theology, including both Catholic and ecumenical perspectives.
Students will analyze and critically engage both classical and contemporary theological sources.
Students will present an integrated and self-appropriated stance regarding key questions and issues in theology.
Students will demonstrate general knowledge of selected ecumenical, interreligious, and/or global perspectives as these inform Christian theological reflection.
