The Master of Theological Studies (60 credits) program is designed to train Christian lay leaders. Through participation in churches, reflection on the Chinese culture, spiritual formation, leadership training, Christian education development and marketplace experience, students will be trained as relevant Christian workers in this generation. A MTS program may take two years to complete.

Notes:

1. To complete the program in two years requires ten courses per year.
2. Students are normally expected to complete the MTS within seven years of beginning the program.
