University of Oxford Master of Theology in Applied Theology (MTh)

We provide a supportive environment in which to pursue academic theological study via the University of Oxford. Many of our tutors are active in teaching for the Faculty of Theology and Religion, and also in research and publication in their own subjects. This experience makes them well-placed to guide, support and inspire your study, training, and formation through these programmes.
