Course summary
The Advanced Diploma is a nine-month postgraduate qualification especially designed for those who already have a degree, but in a subject other than Theology and Religious Studies. Taking this course may be a first step to doing an MPhil or PhD in Theology or Religious Studies in this or another university, but does not count towards such a degree. Students submit a dissertation of not more than 10,000 words and offer three or four papers selected from Papers A1, B1–B16, C1–C12 and D1–D2 of the Theology, Religion and Philosophy of Religion BA (the Faculty's undergraduate degree). Students shall offer at least one paper from the set consisting of Papers C1–C12 and D1–D2 (third-year papers). Only one may be from Papers A1, B1 or C1 (language papers). No student shall offer more than one paper examined by an alternative form of assessment (ie by essay).
