Think you're referring to religious studies / history of religion / philosophy courses? 'Theology' studies usually refers to the courses taken to become practitioners of a particular religion - it's what you study to become a pastor / priest or the equivalent in your chosen religion.

- lgregg 9y agoIt’s very unlikely you’d become a pastor with just a BA. The only normal cases where that happens is in rural churches, or if one goes back to their local church. Otherwise, the trend and job requirements for an Associate/Assistant Pastor is a Masters of Divinity or the pursuant of during employement. Theology is just looking at the Study of God, god, or gods, depending on your schools background and faculty. If you go to an interfaith program like Harvard’s it is very different from going to study theology at Liberty University. Masters of Divinity is the study of the actual execution of the faith organization, that be a Church if Christian, Temple if Buddhist and etc. That’s covers from Theology, Nonprofit taxes, Counseling, and more.
