The unit involves 150 hours of focused learning, or the equivalent of 10 hours per week for 15 weeks. The total includes formally structured learning activities such as lectures, tutorials, online learning, video-conferencing, or supervision. The remaining hours typically involve reading, research, and the preparation of tasks for assessment.

This unit considers the nature of theology itself, its sources and methods. It analyses the place of Scripture, tradition and the teaching authority of the Church in the development of theology through a study of key theological notions such as faith and revelation. In addition it explores the contribution of reason, culture and human experience in the construction of theology.
