Master of Divinity - Distributed Learning (M.Div. DL)

Distributed Learning Provides...

A new model for ministry and mission in the 21st century:

The M.Div. DL program combines online courses with on-campus and contextual learning.

A program that recognizes the whole church as a learning context:

While "distance" learning implies a "here" and a "there", distributed learning students fully connect with Luther Seminary and with a local congregation close to a student's home.

Cohort-based learning that provides support and accountability:

With the M.Div. DL program, you do not navigate the curriculum on your own; rather, you study within a community of learners.

Courses that engage, stimulate and challenge:

Our online classes include regularly scheduled readings and interactive postings that keep you motivated and involved.

The same high quality of education for which Luther is known:

Whether online or in the classroom, students and professors gather around scripture, classic theological texts, and ministry experiences to deepen knowledge and foster the formation of pastoral identity.
