Westminster Theological Seminary in Uganda

January, 2008 Seminary Module

"What you have heard, entrust to faithful men" 2 Timothy 2:2

The Westminster Theological Seminary in Uganda was launched with a convocation and inauguration on Sunday, January 21, 2007.

Because the Seminary serves many pastors and leaders committed to full-time positions, our Master's programs offer a concentrated module format. Students complete reading assignments before the courses meet for two week modules of intensive lectures and discussions. Following each module, students compose papers to submit before the next module begins.

WTS offers the Master of Divinity degree (112 credits) to prepare men for ordained ministry and men and women for various non-ordained leadership roles.

We also offer Master of Arts in Theological Studies (74 credits) with emphases in Biblical Studies, Biblical Counseling and Christian Education (76 credits).

Westminster Theological Seminary in Uganda "is a huge step forward for the church in Africa" remarked David Baguma, Trustee and Moderator of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in Uganda at the inauguration. Only the 9th graduate level seminary on a continent of 800 million where close to 400 million are professing Christians, WTS has been established by a partnership with Birmingham Theological Seminary. Many students in the new WTS have said "We are so grateful to God that a long held dream and prayer has come to fruition."
