The Bachelor of Theology/Bachelor of Global Studies is a double degree for people not only interested in theology but also the global social, political, cultural, environmental and economic changes.

This course offers an international education, with students recommended to study abroad and/or do an internship that provides international work experience and networks.

The Bachelor of Theology/Bachelor of Global Studies offers students with a unique opportunity to study abroad (ACU has over 60 partner institutions around the world), or gain valuable international workplace experience with one of our internship partners.

Students will also study the Catholic theological tradition with an ecumenical and inter-faith perspective, as well as its relationship to other traditions and the potential for responding to the demands of the present and future.

Students have the opportunity to study a Diploma of Languages in either Spanish or Italian alongside their degree to further enhance their employment opportunities.
