The Global Ecumenical Graduate School (GEGS) at Seoul Jangsin University (SJU), in partnership with the Council for World Mission (CWM), has officially launched a new Master of Theology in Transformative Ecumenism. The programme aims to nurture theologians and leaders equipped to address pressing global challenges through faith, justice, and social transformation.
Developed in response to the growing demand for life-affirming theological education in the Global South, the course integrates contextual theology, justice advocacy, and innovative learning approaches.
The three-semester hybrid programme combines in-person learning and fieldwork in Korea with online courses in the student’s home country. Its curriculum covers key areas such as History of the Ecumenical Movement, Ecumenical Mission, Global Christian History, Human Liberation and Christian Education, and Transformative Ecumenism. Students will also engage in fieldwork on topics such as rural mission, urban industrial mission, interfaith cooperation, and peace and reconciliation.
Eligible applicants must hold a bachelor’s degree (minimum B+ average) and demonstrate English proficiency. Selected candidates will receive joint scholarships from CWM and SJU.
Applications are now open, and all required admission documents must be submitted by 30 January 2026.
