Master of Arts
Luther Seminary offers two two-year master’s
degrees. One is the Masters of Sacred Music.
The other is a general Master of Arts degree within which we offer
eight concentrations, some of which have further specializations (see
below).
Luther Seminary also offers a dual MA/MSW (Master
of Social Work) degree with Augsburg College or the College of Saint
Catherine and the University of Saint Thomas. In this joint degree
the social work component serves as the MA concentration.
You can view a brief overview of the M.A. degree by following

Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit; and there
are varieties of ministries, but the same Lord; and there are
varieties of activities, but it is the same God who activates all of
them in everyone.
(1 Cor. 12:4-6)
In these words the apostle Paul identifies the variety of
God-given gifts, ministries, and activities that God uses to build
up the body of Christ.
The same Spirit, the same Lord, and the same God works within
this great diversity of gifts and callings to build up the body of
Christ for its life in the world, thus empowering the church's
witness and mission.
Paul’s words also express the vision of the two-year Master’s and
certificate programs at Luther Seminary – to educate and equip God’s
people who are called to a variety of ministries in the world and in
the church. Diane
