Advanced Master Programs

Beyond the Master of Arts Programs offered, Logos University is able to enroll students in our Master of Theology Program and our Master of Divinity Program.

 

The Master of Theology program is for students looking to get the full depth of theological study in an academic setting.  Students will dive into various areas of theology and biblical studies, learning to apply that theology to their ministry and culture.

 

The Master of Divinity Program is for students seeking to learn all of the necessary skills in order to pastor their local church.  Students will not only gain the theological and biblical skills needed but also the leadership and pastoral skills necessary to thrive in a ministry setting.

Biblical and Theological Foundational Knowledge

For entry into all of Logos University’s Graduate programs, each student is required to have previous academic experience in the area of Biblical and Theological Prerequisite Knowledge.  For students who have not had a background in biblical or theological studies, the student will need to complete Old Testament Survey and New Testament Survey with Logos University.  These courses will be added to the overall program.

Master of Divinity

The Master of Divinity (M.Div.) is the standard of ministry preparation degrees.  It is intended to provide students with a sound foundation from a variety of topics, themes, and disciplines from which pastoral ministry may be practiced. Many denominations, associations, and fellowships require the M.Div. for ordained ministry. 

This degree is an excellent platform from which to pursue Doctoral studies in Ministry, Theology and Philosophy. This degree program may be pursued in three different concentration.  Because of the nature of this program, the University has designed it to conform to standard M.Div. programs and thus has little flexibility for the student to design it as a custom-made program as in other Logos University programs.
