Dear Colleague,
The Aberdonian Divinity Department has been successfully offering online programmes in theology for more than ten years (https://on.abdn.ac.uk/theology/). We are currently developing a new – and indeed overdue! – postgraduate programme in Arab Christianities, initially as a Certificate but eventually evolving into a Diploma and Master in Theology. With a good number of external colleagues with relevant expertise involved in this programme and with a decent number of potential candidates we can make it happen. You can help us in these endeavours by filling in a short survey to indicate your potential interest in contributing to the programme. Please see https://forms.office.com/e/3wjY74WYBn. We would greatly appreciate if you circulated the survey among potential students as well as other colleagues who may be interested in this initiative
We will keep you posted about this promising development.
With best wishes
Joachim and Jakub
