Laurea in Teologia

The first year of the BA (Hons) provides a foundation in the main sub-disciplines of theology: biblical studies, doctrine, history and practical ministry. The second-year moves on to provide broader coverage as students begin to engage more deeply with those sub-disciplines. The third-year provides the integrative horizon where the development of learning across the three years of study comes to its fullest expression and where students are expected to extend and apply their learning to new areas and situations. The capstone module on the Pastoral Epistles requires students to draw together all of their learning to date through a detailed study of the biblical texts and deep engagement with the issues raised. In contrast, other core modules focus in on key aspects of doctrine, pastoral ministry, public theology and word ministry.

Anyone involved in Christian ministry today has to ask: what resources do I need to help me meet the big challenges of our times? At Oak Hill, we believe our theological understanding and practical skills for ministry become most effective when they are broad, deep and adaptable.

There are many ways to prepare for ministry, but we’re convinced that the best way is to be immersed in a learning and worshipping community for a dedicated and rigorous time of training and formation. We give students the time and space they need to study, debate, reflect, pray, and grow in love for Christ in the fellowship of others.
