The Graduate Diploma in Pastoral Care is a new award available from 2009. It is open to students who already hold a degree in Theology and wish to undertake specialised study in the area of Pastoral Care. Students must also have demonstrated some aptitude in the field of Pastoral Care, e.g. successful completion of a level 1 unit of Clinical Pastoral Education. Students who do not hold a qualification in Theology may take relevant units in Pastoral Care as part of either a general Graduate Diploma in Theology or a Bachelor of Theology. Please consult the UFT Dean for details.
In general, graduate awards refer to degrees and diplomas for students who hold a tertiary degree in a discipline other than theology.
The prerequisites and requirements for each award are listed below, linked by tables showing the graduate units that may be taken towards them. These are set out using the categories for the Master of Divinity (Foundational, Integrative, Specialised).
