Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics

at EDUCO - Duquesne University USA

The MA in Theology provides a graduate-level foundation in central areas of theology. The degree is especially appropriate for those who wish to teach theology at the secondary level or prepare for doctoral-level studies in theology. The curriculum is designed to equip students for more specialized study in systematic theology, moral theology, or Biblical theology at the doctoral level. Elective offerings allow students to pursue some degree of specialization, in consultation with his or her academic advisor, as is appropriate to his or her particular goals and interests.

The MA Theology courses and course offerings are rooted in Duquesne University's Catholic identity and simultaneously attentive to the University's mission, which includes a commitment to ecumenical and global concerns. Through completing required courses, elective courses, and an optional six-credit thesis, students will accomplish these student learning outcomes at the curricular level:

• Students will demonstrate comprehension of foundational areas of theology, including both Catholic and ecumenical perspectives.
• Students will analyze and critically engage both classical and contemporary theological sources.
• Students will present an integrated and self-appropriated stance regarding key questions and issues in theology.
• Students will demonstrate general knowledge of selected ecumenical, interreligious, and/or global perspectives as these inform Christian theological reflection.

In addition to their studies, our students maintain the highest standards in the areas of musicianship, pedagogy, and professionalism and work consistently with an extensive network of cooperating teachers in public school music settings (band, choir, orchestra, and general music) for field experiences that begin during the very first semester of the freshman year.

Duquesne University's Multiplatform Journalism curriculum prepares students to work as multimedia journalists across a wide variety of platforms, from online news sites to traditional print and broadcast outlets. Today's journalist must be multifaceted. A reporter at an online news outlet might, in a single day, shoot video, produce an audio story and write several iterations of a story for a website and social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter. Conversely, a reporter at a broadcast station or cable outlet might produce both visual and written versions of a story.

Multiplatform Journalism equips students with the knowledge and skills to produce content for any platform and allows them to seize opportunities as new platforms emerge. In this program, you'll learn to interview, research, report, write, shoot and edit audio and video, create graphics, and master social media.

Students will be able to:

• Understand the importance of news and the role it plays in our civic and political culture.
• Develop the ability to evaluate the newsworthiness of events.
• Study and internalize the public service functions and ethical obligations of journalism.
• Develop and apply a variety of reporting techniques, including interviewing, database research and use of public records.
• Produce multiplatform stories for news, sports, entertainment and various niche genres.
• Learn and practice narrative, video, audio and graphical storytelling techniques that are applicable across a wide variety of platforms, including print, broadcast, web, social media and emerging web-based and mobile platforms.
• Learn within an ethos of adaptability so that, as media platforms and techniques change, students are able to change with them — and possess the theoretical knowledge and practical flexibility to lead that change.
