Description:

The Master of Divinity (MDiv) program prepares students for professional pastoral ministry in Canada and around the world. This degree is the standard for those preparing for a credentialed ministry position in many denominational settings because it provides both depth and breadth in biblical studies, theology and pastoral studies. The MDiv program at Ambrose focuses on spiritual and professional pastoral formation. The goal is to produce graduates who can think and reflect biblically and theologically on the practices of leadership for Christian ministry.

Ambrose Seminary offers three theological studies programs in Chinese: the Diploma in Christian Studies, the Master of Christian Studies and the Master of Divinity. Students in these programs prepare for ministry in the language and culture of the churches they will serve.
