About the Program
The Bachelor's programme in Catholic Theology at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin invites you to explore questions about God, humanity, and the world from a scholarly perspective. At its core is theological anthropology – the reflection on humanity as seen through biblical, historical, and systematic traditions, as well as in dialogue with current societal challenges. The programme provides you with integrated expertise: You will become familiar with the disciplines of theology – Biblical, Historical, Systematic, and Practical Theology – and understand their interrelationships. Theological questions are always considered in dialogue with other disciplines such as philosophy, sociology, and psychology. The aim is to perceive the unity and diversity of theology and to acquire the skills for critically engaging with its central sources, theories, and methods. You will learn to work with and analyze scholarly texts and develop your own positions, which you can defend with sound arguments.
