BIBLICAL THEOLOGY DEGREES
Doctor of Philosophy in Theology (Ph.D.)
Our Doctor of Philosophy in Theology (Ph.D.) graduate program is based on the European university model of "research degrees" which are entirely research-based, rather than course-based. The Ph.D. degree is awarded on the basis of substantial original research; the Ph.D. has a prerequisite of an MA degree (or its equivalent), and requires the student to write a 250-page dissertation (36 credits) on a topic in theology agreed to by the student's Dissertation Chair (this usually takes students approximately 3-6 years to complete).
Tuition is $90 per credit; the total tuition cost for the 36-credit Doctor of Philosophy in Theology (Ph.D.) program would therefore be $3,240. A minimum of 1/3 of coursework credits for any degree or certificate from Miami Christian University must be earned from MCU in order to receive that degree or certificate from the University.
Students who wish to take liberal arts courses in order to transfer course credits to accredited institutions may enroll in the "CLEP" courses offered by our affiliated institution, InstantCert Academy. To enroll in these accredited liberal arts courses, click here.
