In our society, Christians are challenged more and more to show their own ‘identity’. That happens in the political and public debate, in the context of organisations which do or do not have an own identity, and in professional practices. This master programme gives insight in the public dimension of being-a-Christian and in the social reality in which we live. The graduate is, with the help of this master, able to participate in social organisations or lead social organisations in an effective, recognisable, touting, and cooperative manner. This master can also prepare for further research.
In the general modules the acquainting with and the reflection on a reformed ‘worldview’ are the central modules. They are also about the theme of ‘Christian public responsibility’.
The modules are aimed at practices and are formed from a choice-menu which has two parallel modules.
