Description:
The Doctor of Ministry is offered through a cooperative agreement with San
Francisco Theological Seminary. While there is a depth of mystery and
humility in faith, San Francisco Theological Seminary's Doctor of Ministry
program at Marylhurst University is designed to give students’ faith a
practical application, allowing it to achieve its full meaning as a force
for positive change. Students from all major traditions – Christianity,
Judaism, Buddhism or Islam – will learn to apply theology to a concrete
pastoral discipline. Doctor of Ministry graduates leave with greater career
potential and a deeper appreciation for the many connections among faith,
community and personal goals. In this program, students: • Gain a greater
understanding of sacred literature; • Learn about modern pastoral issues; •
Develop skills for a career in educational leadership; and • Expand
theological knowledge. LASTING RELATIONSHIPS The convergence of clergy and
lay pastors from many faiths provides students with opportunities for
networking and support. While working on the Doctor of Ministry degree,
students strike up relationships with colleagues that often lead to new
career paths, new insights into challenging spiritual, political and ethical
issues, and friendships that last for decades. SAN FRANCISCO THEOLOGICAL
SEMINARY The Doctor of Ministry is granted by this esteemed theological
institution. Located in San Anselmo, California, San Francisco Theological
Seminary has been providing continuing education and advanced degrees for
clergy and pastoral professionals for more than 100 years. DEDICATED FACULTY
Both San Francisco Theological Seminary and Marylhurst University offer
students a team of skilled theologians, each with a doctoral degree and
years of experience in ministry, education or public service.

aesthetically satisfying work. REGISTERED ART THERAPISTS Graduates of

start of school in the fall and maintain educational momentum throughout the
school year. Student Teaching By providing guidance in the classroom and in
the school community, Marylhurst's Clinical Faculty facilitate a student
teaching experience that prepares each candidate for their first year of
teaching. Early Entry into the Profession Candidates finish their degree and
licensure requirements with the completion of student teaching prior to the
end of March. This provides the opportunity to develop a work history during
spring term through substitute teaching assignments, which can help secure
employment for the next school year. Mentor Support During the First Year of
Teaching Marylhurst's mentors provide meaningful professional development
after graduation to ensure that the first year of teaching is a successful
and rewarding experience. Reading Emphasis The master's in teaching degree
