Overview
About United Theological College
United Theological College is an institution in Bengaluru, Karnataka, established in 1910. United Theological College is autonomous. It is affiliated to Senate of Serampore College. United Theological College offers 10 programmes, 2 at undergraduate level and 3 at postgraduate level. These include Doctor of Theology (D Th.), Master of Theology (M Th.), Bachelor of Divinity (B D.), Bachelor of Christian Studies (B C.S.) and Diploma in Christian Studies (Dip C.S.), among others. UTC was affiliated for the B.D. degree and granted autonomy for B.D., B.R.E. and D.R.K. courses in 1976. Current official pages list B.D. (autonomous, with Senate oversight), M.Th. and D.Th. under the Senate, plus diploma/certificate programmes. The official course page available is for 2025-26, not 2026-27. It was inaugurated in July 1910 and affiliated with the Senate of Serampore College for the B.D. degree in 1919; the Senate granted autonomy in 1976 for specified courses. The college website states that B.D. is autonomous, while M.Th. and D.Th. are under the Senate. Theology credentials are not ordinary UGC university degrees; the Senate of Serampore is the relevant degree-awarding authority. The official admissions page located provides 2025-26 materials; no 2026-27-specific prospectus was located. The 43,000 sq. ft. figure is library building area, not a numeric library-volume count.
