Third Year (Level 6)
Full Time Undergraduate Study
The final year (Level 6) of the BA (Hons) in Theology is a 120-credit course of study. Entry is normally through the completion of the second year and so this third year represents a further year of full-time study (or its equivalent).
In addition to the units listed, all students complete a programme in Study Skills in semester 1 so as to enable the production of assigned work. This takes place in the course meetings.

Placements
The Programme includes an extended placement which is negotiated between the College and the student, and should relate to the student's particular interests or career expectations in Christian Ministry. Time is provided for journaling of these placement experiences, which requires the student to demonstrate a mature reflective approach to Christian Ministry in generality and in specifics.
Dissertation
Students write a dissertation of 8,000 words on a subject relating to their particular interests or career expectations (and hence to their placements). Dissertation subjects are agreed by negotiation with staff.
Teaching and Assessments
Taught units are largely assessed by production of written work comprising 3,000 words per 10 credits. In some units an end of year examination forms part of the assessment. Marking is normally done anonymously for taught units.
