Program details
Overview
The Doctorat en theologie pratique is a research-focused PhD combining theological reflection with the action sciences, aimed at pastoral agents and Christian interventionists seeking to develop intervention methods for contemporary pastoral practice. The program emphasizes interdisciplinarity and sociocultural and religious analysis of practices and environments, leading to an original contribution to knowledge in practical theology. The minimum length of study is six trimesters: three consecutive full-time trimesters in residence, followed by three additional full-time trimesters or six part-time trimesters, up to a maximum of five years full-time or six years part-time. The program admits students in the fall term.
