In this way, every priest will have at least the bachelor\u2019s degree. For those who wish to continue education, it is possible to introduce the master\u2019s course to be undertaken for one or two years.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018After the master\u2019s course, which will mean a full higher education, a student, if he is qualified, can inter a theological academy and write a candidate\u2019s thesis\u2019, His Holiness continued, pointing to the advisability of keeping the candidate\u2019s degree for a more or less long time. In this way, the academies will play the role of today\u2019s post-graduate schools.<\/p>\n<p>Recalling that Sts Cyril and Methodius\u2019s Post-Graduate and Doctoral School has been launched this year, he said, \u2018This post-graduate school will provide an opportunity for defending both the doctor\u2019s and candidate\u2019s theses on subjects absent from our academies\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>In this way the traditional system of theological education in the Russian Orthodox Church will be adjusted to the Bologna system without any upheavals or a total reformation of the seminaries, His Holiness Kirill stressed.<\/p>\n<p align=\"right\"><em>DECR Communication Service<\/em><\/p>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>His Holiness Patriarch Kirill of Moscow and All Russia, speaking at the meeting of rectors of the Russian Orthodox Church\u2019s theological schools, which took place on November 13 at the Church of Christ the Saviour, pointed to the need to adjust today\u2019s system of theological education to the Bologna system.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1,18,11],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/old.mospat.ru\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8583"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/old.mospat.ru\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/old.mospat.ru\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/old.mospat.ru\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/old.mospat.ru\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8583"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/old.mospat.ru\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8583\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/old.mospat.ru\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8583"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/old.mospat.ru\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8583"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/old.mospat.ru\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8583"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
