Master of Divinity
On Campus
 
The Master of Divinity degree prepares students for professional work in the fields of pastoral care, chaplaincy, community development and dharma teaching. This program is firmly grounded in Buddhist philosophy and meditation practice while emphasizing an inter-religious approach to individual and community care. This training is then applied in hands-on internship work to develop individuals who can actively manifest wisdom and compassion in the world. The program breaks new ground in preparing Buddhist-inspired students to serve their communities in leadership capacities. In particular, completion of a Master of Divinity degree has traditionally been an important credential in preparing a candidate for ministry as a chaplain. The established job opportunities for interfaith chaplains include positions in hospitals, hospices, prisons and the armed forces. Other available career paths include work in the not-for-profit community-based sector and other nontraditional “ministries” such as social activism, diversity ministry or community development.
