Program Overview

An Interdisciplinary Graduate Degree Program in the Humanities

The Catholic Studies Graduate Program incorporates multiple academic disciplines – theology, philosophy, history, literature, science, and the arts – into every course. You will deepen your ability to see the unity of knowledge and develop a coherent vision of your whole life and work. All courses are taught by our nationally and internationally recognized, joyfully Catholic, full-time faculty.

An Exploration of the Catholic Intellectual Tradition

The Master of Arts in Catholic Studies degree requires you to complete 33 credit hours. Two required courses introduce you to 2,000 years of Catholic thought and culture and to the interdisciplinary way of thinking central to Catholic Studies. You also take one course in each of four thematic areas: theology, philosophy, history, and the arts.

Full-time students complete the MA degree in two years. Part-time students, taking one course per semester, typically finish the program in under four years
