Summary

Embark on an intellectual adventure with the MA Theology & Religious Studies at Lincoln Bishop University, a course that invites you to explore the profound questions and diverse traditions that have shaped human understanding across centuries and continents. Journey from the sacred texts and rituals of the great Western faiths to the mystical philosophies of the ancient East, while engaging with the urgent and complex issues that define Religious Studies today.

This part-time Master’s programme is designed for those who are curious about the big questions of life, meaning, and belief—whether you are a committed believer, a questioning agnostic, or a passionate atheist. You’ll have the chance to examine the ideas that have inspired humanity from our earliest cave paintings to our ventures into outer space, and to reflect on how religion continues to influence our world.

Throughout your studies, you’ll develop the skills to construct compelling theological and philosophical arguments, interpret a wide range of sources, and appreciate the rich tapestry of religious experience. Key modules invite you to explore religious dialogue and conflict, analyse the theology found in literature, film and television, and engage in contemporary debates between faith and scepticism. You’ll also delve into the philosophy of religion, gaining insights that are relevant to today’s society.

This course is perfect for anyone fascinated by theology and religion, and is especially valuable for RE and Philosophy teachers seeking to deepen their subject knowledge. It’s also ideal for professionals in fields where understanding religious, philosophical or ethical issues is essential, such as education, social work, counselling, or community leadership.

Join a vibrant community of learners and experts, and discover new ways to make sense of our world, our lives, and the beliefs that shape them.
