MAIS Degree Requirements

Apply Now!

Ministry requires our best. Working cross culturally requires a personal understanding of ourselves as we share the gospel and engage people from diverse backgrounds. In addition to the standard process of admission to the seminary, acceptance into the MAIS degree program requires an interview with the professor most closely related to the proposed program of study.

Although admitted to the seminary with this degree program in view, students are not recognized as candidates for this seminary degree until the above interview is completed, a recommendation has been made for full admission into the MAIS, and a detailed program of studies has been developed and approved. This process should be initiated during the student’s first semester in seminary.

The following shows courses in the MAIS degree. For more detailed information and course descriptions, refer to the current seminary catalog.
