These Master of Arts in Theological Studies (MATS) dual degrees combine academic theological rigor with training and formation in faith-based peacebuilding. Persons considering career pathways outside traditional, credentialed ministry professions can complete the dual MATS-MACT or MATS-MARJ in as little as two years of full-time study.
