broad formation that is academic, practical, and spiritual

area of marriage and the family. It also aims at a
formation of the heart and mind which is able to witness

life.

Prerequisite
It
is open to students who have already completed higher
education and obtained at least a Bachelors degree
equivalent. It does not presuppose prior theological
studies, and therefore the program includes some general
courses in both theology and philosophy. The MMF is
not equivalent to the Canonical Baccalaureate in Theology.
Requirements
MMF studies comprise four semesters
of basic courses in philosophy and theology and of
specialized marriage and family courses.
