This course is a culminating examination taken after completion of all coursework for the MA (Theology). It consists of three questions designed to get the student to synthesize and apply general concepts learned in more than one course. Students include knowledge and understanding they have acquired from elective coursework, as well as the core requirements. In preparing for the comprehensive exams, students see the pool of questions from which the ones they write on during the exam. Students see the question as it appears on the exam along with a study guide that has both required and suggested topics to include in the response as well as the documents to reference. Faculty members conduct review sessions via videoconferencing on each question and are there to answer any questions students may have.
