Thank you for taking the time to enquire about MA
Theology & Religious Studies at York St John University. This
programme has a number of distinct strands, which makes it both
flexible and diverse. Our on-campus delivery offers two strands,
one focusing on Religion and Public Life and one focusing on
Christian Theology and Ministry. We have a team of people with a
wide expertise and a great deal of experience in delivering
postgraduate courses in this subject area. Our programme is
constantly evolving to meet the challenges of a changing world in
which understanding faith communities has never been more
important.
We draw on a wide range of students, from mature
students to recent graduates, and offer a flexible programme to
enable you to access modules over a period of up to four years
studying on a particular strand or mixing modules across the
programme. We have now made it possible to study at York St John
University campus either full or part-time at a cost that
is very competitive within the sector.
So whatever your particular reason for wanting to
study this subject, I believe that York St John offers an ideal
programme of advanced scholarship. If you would like to find out
more, do please contact me or the Theology office at the
University. We look forward to welcoming you as one of our
postgraduate students.
What
qualifications do I need?
The postgraduate programmes are open both to
graduates and to non-graduates* with equivalent professional
experience. Candidates for entry to the programme must normally
fulfil one of the following requirements:
- a first degree, single or joint, at 2.1 honours or above or a
Graduate/Postgraduate Diploma, in Theology & Religious Studies
or a closely related subject
- a postgraduate award or first class honours in another
humanities subject
- a first degree, and at least the equivalent of a Certificate of
Higher Education in Theology & Religious Studies
* Applicants who do not meet these requirements
may still be able to gain access to the course at Masters Level via
the Associate Student or Access Module routes. Please contact us
for more information.
All degrees must be from a recognised
British/Irish institution of Higher Education. Where EU or
other degrees are held, the candidate may be asked to demonstrate
(i) competence in English at level 6.0 in all skills and (ii) the
equivalence of the degree to UK standards.
