Overview
Theological Studies from University of Redlands is a general academic degree, providing balanced exposure to theological disciplines while allowing for focus on an area of interest.
Key facts:
The M.A.T.S. offers the same breadth as the M.Div., but with greater flexibility. M.A.T.S. students develop a final paper integrating their learning and are not required to complete an internship.

It is ideal for those looking to enrich personal or professional development through theological education.
