Contents

The Bachelor’s degree programme in Protestant Theology offers you the opportunity to explore Christianity from an academic perspective – from its biblical roots to its role in the church, culture and society today.

You will be introduced to the central theological disciplines and learn:

  • Interpret biblical texts in a philologically sound and reflective manner.
  • To understand the history of Christianity and its religious practices.
  • To question theological concepts and understand dogmatic connections.
  • Analyse ethical issues and social developments from a theological perspective.

Through intensive engagement with historical traditions and current challenges, you will develop the ability to independently assess theological issues – an essential skill for a wide range of professional fields and further studies.
