Doctor Of Ministry




The D.Min. differs from the research-oriented Doctor Of Theology (Th.D.) or Doctor Of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Religion or Religious Studies in that the focus is on application, not research. The D.Min degree is designed for working Clergy , and most D.Min. programs are structured to allow for part time study by Priest s/ Pastor s, Missionaries , and Denomination al leaders. Conversely, the Th.D is considered more academically oriented with original research, language study, translation, and data analysis.

Université Laval in Québec City offers a Doctor of Practical Theology (DThP), which is based on the same model as the DMin.
