Overview

The Theology program at Valparaiso University provides a pre-professional degree for students wishing to pursue seminary or an active role in servant-ministry.

Theology is the basis for reflection upon essential human questions in preparation for all manner of vocations —and also the basis for understanding and appreciating other religious traditions and the impact religion has on an individual and in society.

Career Prospects

Theology majors at Valpo gain grounding in the origins of Jewish and Christian traditions, examine the growth and diversity of the many traditions within Christianity, reflect on ethical and philosophical questions facing religious and political movements today, and gain exposure to other major religions of the world.
