Course summary

Apply the study of philosophy to theology and engage with some of the most complex and historically significant questions that have shaped Western and Middle Eastern civilisation.

Move from studying philosophical and theological problems to investigating them as a researcher in your own right. Focus on Philosophy and the study of Jewish, Christian, and Islamic analytic theology in conversation with each other, informed by analysis of the spiritual practices that these faiths incorporate.

Our department has a strong research profile in analytic theology, and we'll provide support for you to pursue your own research project.

  • you'll write 4,000-word essays

  • you'll write a research proposal and complete a reflective journal for the skills element of Research Skills and Dissemination Practice
  • you'll present a paper, chair a session, and complete a funding proposal for the dissemination element of Research Skills and Dissemination Practice

You will also receive assignments throughout your course which will provide constant feedback on your development and help prepare you for your assessments.

Careers and skills
