A course in Divinity provides a grounding for ministry by establishing a foundation in biblical and theological knowledge, reflection and application. Unlike other undergraduate degrees, the BDiv has an admission requirement of a prior non-theological bachelor degree or equivalent. The BDiv is a course of the Australian College of Theology.
As an Affiliated College of the Australian College of Theology, PTC is approved to deliver tits courses (CRICOS 02650E).
