Alumni and Friends of Theology
The Department of Theology has been involved in educating Fordham undergraduates since the University’s founding. It has offered master’s degrees since 1955 and doctoral degrees since 1965. We take pride in the thousands of students who have pursued a Theology major, minor, master's, or doctorate at Fordham and are in awe at the range of places Theology has taken them after graduation.
-
Some of our most dedicated undergraduate theology majors have gone on to pursue a PhD in academic study of religion and theology, and are now published scholars, professors in our field. This is not the norm, but we are impressed by and congratulate these stellar alumni.
