As well as providing a postgraduate qualification in theology and religious studies, the MA Religion and the Common Good develops knowledge and understanding relevant to charity and community work, to hospitals and other types of chaplaincy, as well as to educational institutions and the school sector. A special route award, MA in Chaplaincy and Spiritual Care are available to those seeking to study carefully designed modules of special relevance to the role of the chaplaincy today.

The course is made up of a carefully designed curriculum covering key areas of study. You will begin with a study of Religion and the Common Good, Interfaith Dialogue, and Contemporary Religious Thought. These led to the study of Moral Philosophy and Applied Ethics, Critical Spirituality and Reflective Practice, and Biblical Interpretation.
