Divinity grads aim to compensate for the chaos in contemporary society
Vanderbilt Divinity School, one of just five university-based interdenominational institutions in the United States, was founded as the university’s biblical department and is one of Vanderbilt’s oldest programs. Through its master of divinity and master of theological studies degree programs, it has produced a large number of ministers, religious leaders and educators. It has among its stated objectives to help men and women “re-envision” as well as “prepare for the practice of Christian ministry in our time” and “to prepare leaders who will be agents of social justice.” The program “educates ministers and religious scholars side by side, which encourages intellectual challenge that strengthens the training of both.”
