University of Redlands
In affiliation with the Graduate Theological Union, this two-year intensive program focuses on one theological discipline and draws on a close working relationship with a faculty advisor in a specific area of study.

This degree is designed for students who plan to pursue doctoral studies or wish to fine-tune scholarship in a specific area. A substantial, research-based thesis is required, as is basic competency in a modern foreign language for research purposes.

Through other schools and centers of the Graduate Theological Union, students can also pursue a master of arts in art and religion, cultural and historical studies of religions, Jewish studies, and Buddhist studies.
