Annotation

Around half of the modules in our 8-semester integrative degree course focus on social work matters. One quarter are special theological modules, and the last quarter concerns both disciplines at the same time. In each module, attention is paid to bringing in the perspective of the other field, so that theology and social work can mutually fertilise each other. There are also practical elements.
