Program Overview

Program Description:

Starr King now also offers a two-year M.A. (jointly with the Graduate Theological Union) in theological studies. This academic degree is designed for those preparing for vocations in scholarship and teaching.

Students must affiliate with a GTU-member school and then take a specific number of courses outside that school in a concentration area.

The degree provides --
1) an opportunity to explore and enrich assumptions about theological and ethical issues inherent in life and work;
2) an academic structure for personal, sustained inquiry into theological issues and concerns; and
3) a high level of competence in a specific area of study, preparing students for further study at the doctoral level.
