From September 2022 we are offering two routes on our Undergraduate Theology, Ministry and Mission programme.

One route will be our standard BA offering a broad range of theology with in-depth focus on topics such as biblical studies, church history and issues in mission and evangelism in contemporary culture.

New for September 2022 is a route which is focused on ministry to Emerging Generations. The Emerging Generations pathway offers a route through a certificate, diploma, or BA (hons) degree in Theology, Ministry and Mission that will equip Christians everywhere to reach out in mission and develop Christian community for each new generation. It is designed to offer a broad theological base, develop skills in reflective practice and dig deeply into specific issues around child / adolescent development, faith formation and creating new Christian communities. This pathway can be followed from any of our centres and on either a full-time or part-time basis.

From September 2023 we’ll be introducing an additional on our Undergraduate Theology, Ministry and Mission programme, with a focus on Youth Ministry, which will be based in our London Centre.
