There has never been a better time to study Theology and Religious Studies. Religion is all around us so the study of its history and themes are essential to understanding the development of culture and world politics.

The School of Divinity is led by some of the UK’s leading scholars of theology and religion, and has an international reputation as a research centre.

As part of the work of New College to resource the Church of Scotland and beyond, the School of Divinity offers a range of short courses for lay and ordained people. While the courses are open to everyone, they are particularly aimed at those in churches who seek to develop their understanding of Christian theology, worship and mission.
