Areas of Concentration
- Systematic Theology engages Roman Catholic theology in historical and contemporary eras, while also facilitating the study of Orthodoxy, Protestantism, and other religious traditions and worldviews. In addition to classical topics (such as theologies of God and Christ), the Systematic Theology program enables students to focus on ethics, ecclesiology, ecological theology, feminist theology, liberation theology, liturgical theology, Orthodox theology, philosophical theology, and Catholic social thought.
- Historical Theology studies the intellectual and social contexts of western Christian theology from late antiquity to the present day, in concert with other disciplines such as medieval studies, philosophy, history, and the social sciences.
- Christianity in Antiquity explores the emergence of Christian thought and practice from its formative beginnings in Second Temple Judaism to the fifth century of the common era. It attends to the resources, issues, and methods associated with the fields of New Testament, Patristics, and early Christianity.
- Biblical Studies attends to the cultural contexts in which the Bible was written and received, as well as questions of literary criticism and theological implications.
