Bachelor of Sacred Theology (S.T.B.)

Through affiliation with the Pontifical Faculty of the Immaculate Conception at the Dominican House of Studies in Washington, D.C., St. Patrick’s offers the Bachelor of Sacred Theology (S.T.B.) degree.  The STB is an ecclesiastical degree, and the program provides first-level theological competence so that the graduate may pursue further theological studies in the ecclesiastical system.  Seminarians at St. Patrick’s may pursue the M.Div. and S.T.B. degrees concurrently.

 
The S.T.B. Plan of Studies is as follows:

Theology I

  
 
Theology II

  
 
Theology III

  
 
Theology IV

  
 
In the Spring semester of Theology IV, seminarians must pass both the oral and written S.T.B. comprehensive examination.
