Divinity

Course Overview

Specific topics covered include the Greek language, the Old Testament and New Testament, ecclesiology, systematic theology, pastoral counseling, historical theology, world religions, ethics, philosophy, preaching and leadership. These classes, combined with a practicum, a thesis or an elective, will give you the skills and understanding necessary to gain your ordination credential (for those working in religious denominations requiring it) as well as to pursue advanced study in a doctoral program. The MDiv is offered in a flexible delivery format. Under the guidance of professors with extensive experience in pastoral ministry, missions and chaplaincy, you can benefit from both the convenience of online learning and the face-to-face interaction of on-campus classes. For graduates of and current students in Southeastern's MAML or MATS programs, and ministerial graduate transfer students, the MDiv is a natural next step. Up to 48 transfer credit hours can be accepted toward your MDiv at SEU, meaning you could complete the program in just 18'24 months, depending on how many courses you've already completed.
