Attention: open in a new window. PDFPrintE-mail

Applications are now welcome from prospective participants in TCD’s ground-breaking MPhil course in Intercultural Theology and Interreligious Studies.  You can follow the course over one year (full-time) or two years (part-time); as a postgraduate diploma or a Master’s degree; or you can make a selection of modules as part of a semester’s sabbatical programme.  A highlight of the course is the core module ‘Translating God(s),’ which is offered as an Erasmus Intensive Programme, enabling course-participants to engage in a week of funded, intensive study in one of a number of participating universities:  in 2010-11 the venue is Istanbul (June 2011).

The new M. Phil in Intercultural Theology and Interreligious Studies (IT IS) provides and innovative and challenging time of study in an increasingly significant field which has emerged from theological and religious studies scholarship. It seeks to take the concerns that have traditionally been developed in missology and ecumenics and in an interdisciplinary approach, allow course participants from a wide variety of backgrounds, to have a greater understanding of the theoretical and practical issues involved.
