Trinity Theological College
Singapore, Singapore • Founded 1948
Updated Oct 2026 · Source: ttc.edu.sg
Overview
Trinity Theological College is a Singapore seminary that prepares men and women for ordained and lay ministry in the church.
Its roots go back to the Second World War, when missionaries held at Changi prison under Japanese rule imagined a school for theological formation; once the war ended, the founding denominations opened the college in 1948. The college trains pastors and church workers, and it also welcomes lay Christians who want to think carefully about their calling in public life, on the conviction that a congregation grounded in theology benefits the whole church.
Study options range from a Diploma in Theological Studies, through the Bachelor of Divinity, the Master of Divinity, the Master of Theological Studies and the Master of Ministry, to the Master of Theology, the Master of Letters and the Doctor of Theology. Occasional studies include EQUIP evening courses and workshops for lay people, covering subjects such as biblical interpretation, doctrine, mission and workplace theology.
The year is organised into two semesters of fourteen teaching weeks each.
The first opens in July with orientation for new students and a retreat for the whole community, and the second begins in January and closes in mid-May with the graduation service. Faculty members join regional and international conferences on bioethics, interfaith relations and church life, and the college publishes short articles on contemporary issues together with English and Chinese newsletters.
A theological library supports students and researchers.
