Division III: The Interpretation of the Christian Witness


Professors: Frederick Aquino, Karen Baker-Fletcher, D. Stephen Long, Hugo Magallanes, Bruce Marshall, Rebekah Miles, Theodore Walker

Overview

Coursework in Division III is intended to foster an understanding of the content of the Christian faith in its historical and contemporary articulations and to enhance the student’s capacity for constructive theological and ethical reflection. Basic studies provide an orientation to theological and ethical thinking and knowledge of the principles of Christian doctrine and moral teaching. Advanced studies are offered on specific doctrines, theological questions and ethical problems, on the works of selected theologians and ethicists and on issues having to do with the relationship between contemporary Christian thinking and current philosophical, scientific, political and cultural developments.

Enrollment in core electives, ST 6304 , ST 6305 , or ST 6306  presupposes satisfactory completion of ST 6303 . ST 6303  is also a prerequisite for all other ST electives. MT 6300  is a prerequisite for all MT electives.  Exemptions may be granted by the Associate Dean.

Beyond the regular elective courses offered each term, reading courses in Division III may be arranged. Instructions may be obtained from the registrar.
