Bachelor of Ministry/Theology

(refer ACT Undergraduate Handbook)

The ACT BMin and BTh are both 3 year degrees comprising 96 credit points, where 1 semester subject = 4 credit points. They are semesterised degrees, internally assessed and externally moderated. The BMin is the primary degree taken by Baptist Ministry candidates although either degree is an acceptable starting point for ministry.  At Malyon, the BTh degree includes Greek language and Greek exegesis subjects although these are also available in the BMin as an option. While the BTh contains little by way of practical subjects in its compulsory core, students may select a range of practical subjects as electives in order to have a thorough biblical and theological base as well as the practical training. The BMin and the BTh have an Honours option of a 4th year, which includes a significant research thesis. The BTh(Hons) provides good opportunities for post-graduate theological studies by providing a path ofr possible direct entry to a research masters MTh if achieved at an overall level of Honours 2B or better.
