Course summary

Navigate ethics, history, and humankind with our theology and philosophy degree.

Explore human society with our theology and philosophy degree
We run our BA Theological Studies with CertHE Philosophy according to the Catholic magisterium. You will take one year of philosophy and then three years of theology. We’ll cover topics like:

  • canon law

  • metaphysics

  • anthropology

  • prophets

  • personal and social ethics

  • ecumenism and interfaith

  • penance and anointing.

A trip to Rome
Together, we’ll visit Rome and stay at the Venerable English College’s summer residence, Villa Palazzola. You’ll also explore significant sites, such as:

  • catacombs

  • the Vatican Museum

  • the Trevi Fountain

  • Spanish Steps

  • St Peter's

  • St Paul outside the Walls

  • Colosseum

  • Pantheon

  • Venerable English College.

You will study at both St Mary's and Allen Hall Seminary. Therefore, you’ll join the only UK theology and philosophy course to let you learn alongside seminarians.

We’re also the only UK university where you can earn an Ecclesiastical degree on top of your bachelor’s – the Sacred Baccalaureate in Theology (STB) through Mater Ecclesiae College.
