Degrees and Diplomas

The UFT offers most degrees and diplomas awarded by the MCD; the majority of our students study for the Bachelor of Theology (24 units), the Graduate Diploma in Theology (6 units), or the Master of Divinity (18 units). The full range of awards we offer is listed below. These may be divided into three categories: undergraduate awards, for those who have no prior tertiary qualification or who wish to take a first degree in theology; graduate awards, for those who already have a tertiary degree in an area other than theology; and postgraduate awards, for those who have a tertiary qualification in theology and wish to proceed to a second degree in theology or to a higher research degree.

A prospectus and the relevant regulation for each award can be found on the MCD website under the headings 'Regulations' and 'Courses'. These explain the prerequisites, requirements, and duration of each award. Students may also enrol in a single subject without taking it towards a specific degree, or audit a unit.

In choosing an award, you should ask: have I got the necessary prerequisites? where do I want this award to lead? how much time do I have for study? can I complete the award within the maximum time? The UFT Dean is always happy to discuss your requirements to ensure you make the right choice.
