Program overview
What Canterbury Christ Church University says about their program:
A foundation year helps you develop the study skills and self-confidence needed for higher education when you don’t reach the entry requirements for your subject.
If you’re drawn to thinking about God and Christian faith, our Theology degree offers you a course that encourages open-mindedness and lively debate.
You’ll explore how people of faith have instilled life with religious meaning and seek to understand how Christian beliefs and values are relevant to the world. As well as investigating what Christianity in action looks like today, you’ll have the opportunity to study other important religious traditions.
Canterbury is a unique and inspiring place to study Christian theology. Our Canterbury Campus is located a very short distance from Canterbury Cathedral, on the site of the ruins of St Augustine's Abbey. Theology has been studied here since AD 597!
This stimulating degree course fosters critical judgment, analysis and evaluation, together with cultural awareness and the ability to argue with clarity. The teaching team are passionate about their subject and will encourage you to share your enthusiasm and excitement.
We know employers are looking for dynamic, open-minded graduates who can adapt, innovate, and collaborate. This is why we have designed a new way of teaching and learning to ensure that you are work-ready for when you graduate
