Purpose
The Master of Sacred Theology (S.T.M.) degree program provides the opportunity to acquire specialized knowledge in a chosen field of theological study and to gain and use the skills necessary for scholarly work and research in theology on an advanced level.

The S.T.M. degree program is suitable both for those who wish to advance their theological knowledge and understanding beyond the Master of Divinity degree and for those who wish to equip themselves for theological leadership in the Church.

Objectives
By completing the requirements of the S.T.M. degree program students should have:

  1. Acquired a greater understanding of the nature and function of Christian theology;
  2. Gained an appreciation of the theological heritage of the Christian Church and of catholic expressions of the Christian faith;
  3. Developed their ability to pursue independent research, to formulate a problem or issue, to develop a cogent argument, and to present the argument clearly and convincingly;
  4. Sharpened their skills in reasoning from Scriptures and research and in intelligently evaluating scholarly sources;
  5. Gained facility in the articulation of a coherent theological position which does justice to Scripture and the confessional expressions of the Christian faith;
  6. Acquired a humble recognition that theological study concerns divine mysteries and demands a never-ending search for greater understanding and comprehension.
