Master of Divinity

The University of Notre Dame Australia

The Master of Divinity offers students a unique opportunity to study at an Ecclesiastical Faculty recognised by the Holy See. This degree is a natural complement to the Bachelor of Divinity, and students who have completed the Bachelor of Divinity can earn the Master of Divinity in two years, by completing 4 units of credit. The program provides students with a comprehensive knowledge of the breadth and beauty of the Catholic Intellectual Tradition through studies in philosophy, Sacred Scripture, Catholic theology and associated disciplines. Through critical engagement with the tradition that is at once both appreciative of its intellectual patrimony and sensitive to contemporary issues, students in the Master of Divinity will gain the knowledge and skills to effectively communicate their beliefs to a variety of audiences. Students can study this program as a potential pathway into HDR studies, under the specified conditions.
