The Master of Theology (MTh) is a first research degree, combining training in research, research method and writing skills. The part time option for this programme offers flexibility and allows students to pursue further studies whilst continuing in work or ministry.
The MTh can provide an opportunity to reflect more deeply on issues arising from ministry or professional life and for pastors to engage with their congregations with expertise and critical judgement. provides an excellent apprenticeship in research for those who wish to progress to a PhD programme. It is also ideal preparation for a future in teaching, writing and pastoral work.
Candidates for this degree follow a programme of study approved by the Head of Research and supervision team and write their thesis (30,000 words) and complete an oral examination (viva), on a topic in one of the major theological disciplines.
The MTh thesis must be at (or informed by) the forefront of an academic discipline, field of study or area of professional discipline and be an independent contribution to a distinct critical survey of knowledge. It must include a critical evaluation of current research and advanced scholarship in the discipline and be appropriately presented with clarity and conciseness of expression.

To be eligible to apply for the MTh programme, in normal circumstances, you should have a BA Honours degree in a theological discipline at 2:1 level (or equivalent). During this degree, you should have completed some supervised but self-directed research writing, such as a final-year project.
Applicants from North America will normally have a BA or an MA majoring in a theological discipline or an MDiv with a GPA of 3.3 for application to the MTh. If your GPA is under this, but very close, and your transcript shows that you did better on modules relevant to your proposed research, the Head of Research will judge on a case-by-case basis.
