Master of Pastoral Theology (MPT) Overview
Theological reflection as preparation for active ministry.
That approach underscores our Master of Pastoral Theology degree—a program of study designed to stress personal growth, community connections and service-learning opportunities. Student coursework centers on moral theology with an emphasis on the Roman Catholic tradition, and graduates can go on to serve as ministers, chaplains or educators.
