PRTS in Asia

Announcing PRTS in Asia

美國清教徒改革宗神學院（PRTS）與台北改革宗神學院（CRTS）合作，從2020年一月起在台北開始神碩課程。此計劃在台北用密集課程方式提供神碩課程：

PRTS in Asia 課程師資由PRTS 的博士班教授及經PRTS 認證通過的博士師資授課，學生所修習的課程學分為PRTS 神碩學分。本課程將接受美國神學教育協會（Association of Theological Schools, ATS）認證，其神碩學位將由PRTS 頒發。成績優秀的學生可直接申請進入 PRTS 博士班。我們希望這是叫所有關心亞洲神學教育的人非常興奮的消息。因為這代表了，亞洲學生不再須要去美國就可領受最頂尖的改革宗神學教育。這也是清教徒改革宗神學院的宣教策略：與其差派宣教士來亞洲，還不如投資培養亞洲本土的神學師資。此課程內容與 PRTS同步，學生申請標準就是PRTS 神碩的申請標準（https://prts.edu/curriculum/master-of-theology/）。

若您在意亞洲神學教育，也關心正統改革宗神學在亞洲生根發展，我們請您為這課程順利展開禱告。我們需要聖徒們的禱告！有關課程基本資訊：
