Who is it for?

UST is for anyone who wants to grow both spiritually and academically – in their understanding of the Christian gospel, in their ministry skills, and in personal formation.

Our graduates serve around the world, whether alongside their professional work or in full time ministry as pastors, gospel workers, missionaries, evangelists, church planters, women’s workers, scholars and youth and children’s workers.

Our Programmes and Accreditation

At UST we are committed to providing the best theological training that is geographically and financially accessible, as well as providing full and part-time study modes to suit the needs of today’s students.

 

Programme Options

Our BA Flex is designed for those preparing for a lifetime of ministry and a flexible blend of campus and community-focused online learning, whilst our Learning Community-based GDip is for those stepping into ministry who want to study part time in the context of their local church. Our MTh, delivered either on campus or in Learning Communities, forms the kind of pastor-theologians that today’s church and Christian ministries so desperately need. Finally, our PhD programme gives students the opportunity to undertake extensive independent study to contribute to the mission of the Church.

To ensure students have the best academic experience, our School has partnerships with two universities. Our BA Flex, GDip and MTh programmes are validated by The Open University, a leading UK university specialising in flexible and accessible learning. Our PhD programme is offered in partnership with the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (VU Amsterdam), one of the world’s foremost research universities for Theology.

Our Locations

We have locations from Calgary to Helsinki and London to Athens, as well as community-focused online learning options. If you'd like to join the Union family, find your local Learning Community on our locations page.

 

Where we are

Our South Wales campus is Union’s home and base for residential study, while our worldwide network of Learning Communities gives access to gospel-hearted, academically rigorous theological education like never before. In partnership with local churches and Christian organisations, Learning Communities provide affordable and flexible programmes for those who want to study part-time whilst continuing in existing ministry or work.
