To provide students enrolled on a baccalaureate in another discipline the opportunity to acquire a minimal but sound introduction to the basic disciplines of theology (Biblical analysis, the history of the church, speculative theology, theological ethics and practical theology), as a complement to their main path of study.
The minor in theology, open to all, could be of particular interest as a side subject for students of philosophy, history and history of art, classic languages and literature or even psychology.
