| Description | The Master of Arts (Biblical/Theological Studies) or the MA(BTS) program is an integrative theological degree designed to provide a foundation for researching and teaching Bible and Theology. This degree educates those who are pursuing the vocation of teaching Bible and Theology in academic institutions, as well as those who want focused graduate study in Bible (Old or New Testament) or Theology. Persons training for pastoral ministry may also benefit from this program.
The student in an MA(BTS) program concentrates on either theology or biblical studies (Old or New Testament). This concentration is declared on application and expressed academically in a final thesis. The student is also required to do advanced studies in the other two disciplines. All students do advanced studies in both biblical languages. Although the thesis reflects a student’s chosen concentration, the
program is designed to ensure that the student understands the connectedness of the three disciplines. | | |
