Overview

This Divinity - Women, Society, and Church Studies specialization will be nurtured by courses offered across the Saint Paul School of Theology curriculum. A course may count toward the specialization as long as the student makes a case that demonstrates how the matter relating to Women, Society, and Church Studies provides a lens for the student’s work in the course.

Key Features

Outcomes:

Knowledge of issues faced by women in society and church

Understanding historical developments of women and women’s movements
Knowledge of writings that represent a feminist school of thought
Methods of reading texts and situations through a feminist hermeneutic or epistemology
Creatively and critically using feminist approaches to the practices of ministry

Programme Structure

Specializing students should take:

9 credit hours where Women, Society, and Church Studies becomes “the primary lens” such as Women in the New Testament with Dr. Israel Kamudzandu;
6 credit hours where course projects offer a "supportive lens" to the concerns and commitments of Women, Society, and Church Studies. For example, several students in Dr. Kvam's People of the Book class have researched topics concerning Islam and women.
