Online Master's in Theological Studies Degree

The UD School of Ministry offers the entire Master's of Theological Studies degree online. The online Master's degree is unique among Master's degrees in theology:


  • Master's studies in this program can be done entirely online. There are no residential or onsite attendance requirements. In addition, many of the other Master's programs offered by the School of Ministry have online course offerings.
  • The Master's degree is offered by a regionally accredited, Catholic University.
  • Online Master's courses are identical to the courses offered onsite. There is no "transcript difference" between students who take courses onsite or online.
  • Because the online and onsite courses are identical, students can do all courses online, all courses onsite, or they may choose to do some courses online and some onsite.
  • UD School of Ministry online classes are given by the same professors who teach onsite. Lectures, discussion groups and live tutorial chats are all led by a fully qualified professor, not by a teaching assistant. In UD School of Ministry Master's courses, the professor who writes the course teaches the course.
