1. The Bachelor of Arts in Theology is designed to introduce students to the study of Theology, with specific attention to the historical, geo-political, socio-eco- nomic, cultural, and religious features of the life and experiences of Caribbean people. It offers students the opportunity to examine the sacred texts, beliefs, and practices of faith-based communities in the Caribbean, with a particular emphasis on the Abrahamic Faiths and Afro-Caribbean religions. It also serves as the undergraduate programme offering of the Department of Theology. This programme is structured so that, during the first year, students are exposed to introduc- tory core courses, and fulfil their Foundation course requirements, including Biblical Hebrew and Greek. In the second and third year, in addition to core courses taught in the Department of Theology, a range of carefully chosen course options are presented to students.’
