Chicago Theological Seminary
Chicago Theological Seminary
An ecumenical seminary related to the United Church of Christ with a style fostering rigorous theological inquiry and development of students’ own intellectual and professional integrity in an atmosphere of diversity and freedom. The basic professional degree program is the three-year Master of Divinity, but the two-year Master of Arts is also offered. A dual-degree program with the School of Social Service Administration of the University of Chicago is available. A one-year Master of Sacred Theology is also available to students who have completed their first theological master's degree. The post-M.Div. Doctor of Ministry, in several concentrations, is available for full- or part-time students with experience in ministry. The Ph.D. program educates persons to reflect synthetically on religion, social justice and culture by encouraging interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary approaches to texts and contexts.
