Overview

Although mainly taught, the Theology programme from University of Malta is structured in such a way as to enhance student participation and research through tutorials, class-presentations and a dissertation.

Career opportunites

The Programme is mainly intended for candidates who intend to engage themselves in pastoral ministry, both as ordained as well as lay ministers in the Church.

It is also intended for other individuals who wish to deepen their faith experience, and use this as a springboard to engage themselves in the field of social and pastoral care in the Church and non-Governmental organizations.

The Programme enables students to proceed to the PhD programme in the Faculty of Theology.
