Details

The Bachelor of Theology (BTh) at Stellenbosch University is a three-year degree that introduces students to the academic and practical dimensions of theology — covering biblical studies, church history, systematic theology, ethics, and practical theology. The programme is offered in Afrikaans and English and is suited to students interested in ministry, community development, counselling, and educational work within South Africa's diverse religious landscape. It serves both as a standalone qualification for community-focused vocations and as a foundation for further postgraduate theological study.
