Degree Concentrations

Our Master of Divinity offers the option of a concentration as a means to develop specialization in an area of ministry. A concentration consists of a minimum of 10 credits in a specified area of emphasis.

 

Hispanic Ministry

The Concentration in Hispanic Ministry builds competence for engaging in ministry with Latinx peoples and contexts. It introduces students to ministry in contexts with a Latinx focus and fosters intercultural competency.

 

Mission Development and Redevelopment

The Concentration in Mission Development provides an opportunity for students interested in providing leadership to creating new worshiping communities or redeveloping existing worshipping communities, and to deepen their theological and practical imagination around these unique ministry settings.

 

Small Town and Rural Ministry

The Concentration in Rural Ministry provides an opportunity for students interested in providing leadership in small town and rural (STaR), including small member congregations, and to deepen their theological and practical imagination around these ministry settings.

More information about the requirements for each concentration can be found in Wartburg’s course catalog.
