PhD in Theology and Apologetics

Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary's Doctor of Philosophy Degree in Theology and Apologetics provides advanced training in the fields of Christian theology and apologetics, equipping students to become leaders in academics and ministry and providing direct interaction with leaders in theology and apologetics while also offering practical opportunities to write and teach in the field. This degree will qualify the student to teach at the university or graduate level, while also providing insight and information useful to the professional minister. With the emphasis on both theology and apologetics, the Ph.D. will give students an opportunity to learn about their faith and how to defend it. The dual emphasis is unique among Liberty's peer institutions and should create multiple opportunities for graduates as both professors and pastors. A 6 credit hour dissertation is required, as well as on campus intensives.
