Apply the study of philosophy to theology and engage with some of the most complex and historically significant questions that have shaped Western and Middle Eastern civilisation.
Move from studying philosophical and theological problems to investigating them as a researcher in your own right. Focus on Philosophy and the study of Jewish, Christian, and Islamic analytic theology in conversation with each other, informed by analysis of the spiritual practices that these faiths incorporate.
Our department has a strong research profile in analytic theology and we’ll provide support for you to pursue your own research project.
2:1 or equivalent in Philosophy, or joint programme including Philosophy, or Theology where you can demonstrate significant engagement with Philosophy.
