Overview

The Theology program from Avondale University covers areas such as biblical studies, biblical languages, theology, and Christian history. The BTh will prepare you for work in a range of not-for-profit, church, government and private organisations. With strong industry contacts and one-on-one support, you will be work-ready upon graduation.

Learning outcomes

Upon successful completion of the Bachelor of Theology, graduates will be able to:

Demonstrate a broad and coherent knowledge in the discipline of biblical studies, and/or theology and their underlying methodologies;
independently analyse and critically evaluate Biblical and theological concepts and methodologies, and demonstrate how they relate to a Seventh-day Adventist world view;
communicate acquired Biblical and theological knowledge in a contextualised manner to a diverse range of audiences;
model and articulate the relevance of a relationship with Christ and Christian beliefs to daily living;

exhibit the skills and capacities necessary to reflect theologically and provide the foundation for further studies and scholarship.

Career Opportunities

While the course does not provide a pathway into the employed ministry of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, it does give students a theological foundation and an opportunity for spiritual development. The BTh also presents a possible pathway into a coursework masters degree.
