Bachelor of Theology
University of Notre Dame Australia, Fremantle, WA / Sydney, NSW, Australia
About this program
The Bachelor of Theology at the University of Notre Dame Australia teaches students about their faith and how to examine it with academic rigour, drawing on Scripture, Biblical Studies, Doctrinal or Systematic Theology, and Sacramental Theology and Liturgy. Within the Catholic Intellectual Tradition, theology relies on philosophy and philosophy reaches toward what theology offers, and students learn to move between the two disciplines. The degree prepares graduates for Catholic ministry and religious education, academic teaching, youth work and pastoral care.
