Course dates and pathways
UK degrees are structured differently to many international programmes, and each Redcliffe MA is made up of four taught modules and a research dissertation.
With the South East Asia Schools, each module is taught in a one-week intensive, with two modules taken per year for the first two years.
A typical student will study the following:
Year 1
Attend the two-week Asia School in Chiang Mai in October, and study two compulsory modules giving an overview of global missiological issues and methods for postgraduate-level research.*
Engage with online tutorials, tailored assignments and distance learning throughout the rest of the year.
Year 2
Attend your second School for two modules looking at your area of speciality, either Leadership or Member Care.*
Engage with online tutorials, tailored assignments and distance learning throughout the rest of the year, and prepare to begin a research dissertation in a field relevant to your work.
Years 3 to 4
Complete your research dissertation with distance supervision and graduate with an MA in your chosen field.
* Redcliffe modules are delivered in two year cycles; so while you can begin your studies at any School Hub, the order in which you complete your modules depends on your entry year.
Asia School in Chiang Mai 2019 - 25 October - 8 November, (study skills and missiology modules)
Asia School 2020 -26 October - 6 November (specialism modules)
Course fees
Redcliffe's course fees are competitive, simple to calculate, and consist of three major categories:
Tuition fees
Each Chiang Mai student pays £6050 to complete their MA programme. Students must pay 50% by the start of year one, and 100% by the start of year two. This is the cost of the whole programme, not a cost-per-credit or cost-per-module price.
Mode of Delivery fee
An additional fee is payable to cover the costs of food, accommodation and the non-academic programme during each School. For the two-week delivery in October 2019, this cost is £750 for residential students or £440 for non residential.
Annual Administration fee
Students can take between two and four years to complete their programme. For each year that they are enrolled on the course, a fee is chargeable. This is subject to change, but is currently £270 (invoiced in GBP).
